“One day a peacock. The next day a feather duster.”
— Democrat Patrick Quinn, Illinois lieutenant governor
“The objection to fairy stories is that they tell children there are dragons. But children have always known there are dragons. Fairy stories tell children that dragons can be killed.”
– G. K. Chesterton
“Zoology, eh? That’s a big word, isn’t it.”
“No, actually it isn’t”, said Tiffany. “Patronizing is a big word. Zoology is really quite short.”
From The Wee Free Men by Terry Pratchett.
