Deer Mice

Famous quotes containing the words deer and/or mice:

    When shot, the deer seldom drops immediately, but runs sometimes for hours, the hunter in hot pursuit. This phase, known as ‘deer running,’ develops fleet runners, particularly in deer- jacking expeditions when the law is pursuing the hunters as swiftly as the hunters are pursuing the deer.
    —For the State of Maine, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    For something is amiss or out of place
    When mice with wings can wear a human face.
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)
