Frog Species

Famous quotes containing the words frog and/or species:

    An old pond—
    a frog tumbles in—
    the sound of water.
    Matsuo Basho (1644–1694)

    The French manner of hunting is gentlemanlike; ours is only for bumpkins and bodies. The poor beasts here are pursued and run down by much greater beasts than themselves; and the true British fox-hunter is most undoubtedly a species appropriated and peculiar to this country, which no other part of the globe produces.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
