Entry 223

She is mine own,
And I as rich in having such a jewel
As twenty seas, if all their sand were pearl,
The water nectar, and the rocks pure gold.

William Shakespeare

NECTAR, n. A drink served at banquets of the Olympian deities. The secret of its preparation is lost, but the modern Kentuckians believe that they come pretty near to a knowledge of its chief ingredient.

Ambrose Bierce

If God hadn't intended for us to eat animals,

he wouldn't have made them out of meat!
IGnatius T Foobar

Frogs have it easy. They can just eat what bugs them.
Unknown

The frog is a diligent songster, having a good voice but no ear. The libretto of his favorite opera, as written by Aristophanes, is brief, simple and effective --"brekekex-koax"; the music is apparently by that eminent composer, Richard Wagner. Horses have a frog in each hoof --a thoughtful provision of nature, enabling them to shine in a hurdle race.

Ambrose Bierce

A great many people think they are thinking when they are merely
rearranging their prejudices.
William James
