Water Caterpillar

Famous quotes containing the words water and/or caterpillar:

    I asked, “What happens, father, when you die?”

    He told where all the running water goes,
    And dressed me gently in my little clothes.
    Robert Pack (b. 1929)

    That author who draws a character, even though to common view incongruous in its parts, as the flying-squirrel, and, at different periods, as much at variance with itself as the caterpillar is with the butterfly into which it changes, may yet, in so doing, be not false but faithful to facts.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
