Famous quotes containing the words spider and/or bite:
““Will you walk into my parlor?” said the spider to the fly;

And I have many pretty things to show when you are there.””

“What a hell of an economic system! Some are replete with everything while others, whose stomachs are no less demanding, whose hunger is just as recurrent, have nothing to bite on. The worst of it is the constrained posture need puts you in. The needy man does not walk like the rest; he skips, slithers, twists, crawls.”
—Denis Diderot (1713–1784)
