Frog Species

Famous quotes containing the words frog and/or species:

    “What a wonderful bird the frog are—
    When he stand he sit almost;
    When he hop, he fly almost.
    He ain’t got no sense hardly;
    He ain’t got no tail hardly either.
    When he sit, he sit on what he ain’t got almost.”
    —Unknown. The Frog (l. 1–6)

    “The principle of avoiding the unnecessary expenditure of energy has enabled the species to survive in a world full of stimuli; but it prevents the survival of the aristocracy.”
    —Rebecca West (1892–1983)
