The individual with any soul cannot live long in the presence of towering mountains or sweeping plains without getting a little of the high moral standard of Nature infused into his being ... with eyes opened, the great story of the Earth's forming, the history of a tree, the life of a flower or the activities of some small animal will all unfold themselves to the recreationist.

• Paper Matches My aunts washed dishes while the uncles squirted each other on the lawn with garden hoses. Why are we in here, I said, and they are out there? That’s the way it is, said Aunt Hetty, the shriveled-up one. I have the rages that small animals have, being small, being animal. Written on me was a message, “At Your Service,” like a book of paper matches. One by one we were taken out and struck. We come bearing supper, our heads on fire.

• La belleza depende tanto del tamaño como de la simetría. Ningún animal muy pequeño puede ser bello, porque su contemplación requiere tan poco tiempo que la impresión que produce es confusa. Tampoco puede serlo uno muy grande, porque no se puede tener una visión completa de él a la vez, y por lo tanto no habrá unidad ni totalidad.

  Aristotle

• Los anuncios de cerveza suelen mostrar a hombres grandes, varoniles, haciendo cosas varoniles: "Acabas de matar a un animal pequeño. Es hora de una cerveza ligera". ¿Por qué no tener un anuncio de cerveza realista, con una cosa realista sobre la cerveza, donde alguien dice: "Son las 5:00 de la mañana. Acabas de mear en un contenedor. Es la hora de Miller".
