Famous quotes containing the words largest and/or animal:
“We saw many straggling white pines, commonly unsound trees, which had therefore been skipped by the choppers; these were the largest trees we saw; and we occasionally passed a small wood in which this was the prevailing tree; but I did not notice nearly so many of these trees as I can see in a single walk in Concord.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“In the animal kingdom, the rule is, eat or be eaten; in the human kingdom, define or be defined.”
