| Alice thought she had never seen such a curious croquet-ground in her life: it was all ridges and furrows: the croquet balls were live hedgehogs, and the mallets live flamingoes, and the soldiers had to double themselves up and stand on their hands and feet, to make the arches. |

| "Not conversing," said Eeyore. "Not first one and then the other. You said `Hallo' and Flashed Past. I saw your tail a hundred yards up the hill as I was meditating my reply. I _had_ thought of saying `What?' --- but of, [sic] course, it was then too late." "Well, I was in a hurry." "No Give and Take," Eeyore went on. "No Exchange of Thought. `_Hallo --- What_' --- I mean, it gets you nowhere, particularly if the other person's tail is only just in sight for the second half of the conversation." |
| ~ -- Eeyore complains to Rabbit _The House at Pooh Corner_, p. 147 ~ |

| I ask whether the mere eating of human flesh so very far exceeds in barbarity that custom which only a few years since was practised in enlightened England:Ma convicted traitor, perhaps a man found guilty of honesty, patriotism, and suchlike heinous crimes, had his head lopped off with a huge axe, his bowels dragged out and thrown into a fire; while his body, carved into four quarters, was with his head exposed upon pikes, and permitted to rot and fester among the public haunts of men! |
| ~ Herman Melville (1819–1891), U.S. author. Typee (1846), ch. 17, The Writings of Herman Melville, vol. 1, eds. Harrison Hayford, Hershel Parker, and G. Thomas Tanselle (1968). ~ |
