Unknown. Three Young Rats

Famous quotes containing the words unknown, young and/or rats:

    All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event—in the living act, the undoubted deed—there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask!
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    Someone criticized an elderly man for wooing young women. He replied that that was the only way to rejuvenation, which was, after all, everybody’s wish.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    Three young rats with black felt hats,
    Three young ducks with white straw flats,
