Gila Monster Bite

Famous quotes containing the words monster and/or bite:

    What monster have we here?
    A great Deed at this hour of day?
    A great just Deed—and not for pay?
    Absurd,—or insincere.
    Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)

    While you’re playing cards with a regular guy or having a bite to eat with him, he seems a peaceable, good-humoured and not entirely dense person. But just begin a conversation with him about something inedible, politics or science, for instance, and he ends up in a deadend or starts in on such an obtuse and base philosophy that you can only wave your hand and leave.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
