Famous quotes containing the words swamp and/or rat:
“Towns oftener swamp one than carry one out onto the big ocean of life.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“A rat crept softly through the vegetation
Dragging its slimy belly on the bank
While I was fishing in the dull canal
On a winter evening round behind the gashouse
Musing upon the king my brother’s wreck
And on the king my father’s death before him.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
