Big Muddy

Famous quotes containing the words big and/or muddy:

“Schools of fish come to those who wait patiently; if the big ones don’t come, the little ones will.”
—Chinese proverb.

“The swimming hole is still in use. It has the same mudbank. It is still impossible to dress without carrying mud home in one’s inner garments. As an engineer I could devise improvements for that swimming hole. But I doubt if the decrease in mother’s grief at the homecoming of muddy boys would compensate the inherent joys of getting muddy.”
