Worm Bet

Famous quotes containing the words worm and/or bet:

    You have made your way from worm to man, and much in you is still worm. Once you were apes, and even now man is still more ape than any ape.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    I see that every man that went in had his pockets bulging, or something muffled up under his coat—and I see it warn’t no perfumery either, not by a long sight. I smelt sickly eggs by the barrel, and rotten cabbages, and such things; and if I know the signs of a dead cat being around, and I bet I do, there was sixty-four of them went in. I shoved in there for a minute, but it was too various for me, I couldn’t stand it.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
