"What is a country without rabbits and partridges? They are among the most simple and indigenous animal products; ancient and venerable families known to antiquity as to modern times; of the very hue and substance of Nature, nearest allied to leaves and to the ground,—and to one another; it is either winged or it is legged. It is hardly as if you had seen a wild creature when a rabbit or a partridge bursts away, only a natural one, as much to be expected as rustling leaves." - HENRY DAVID THOREAU
"Ideas are like rabbits. You get a couple and learn how to handle them, and pretty soon you have a dozen." - JOHN STEINBECK
"Asking politicians to vote themselves out of power is like asking rabbits not to multiply, it ain't natural." - BOB BECKEL
