Richard Adams cytaty

„Podobno dawno temu (zaczął Mlecz) El-ahrera żył dokładnie w tym miejscu. Wiódł życie podobne do naszego, dość szczęśliwe: jadł trawę i od czasu do czasu wypuszczał się w okolice tego dużego domu w dole, skąd kradł flerę. I jego szczęście trwałoby pewnie wiecznie, gdyby nie fakt, że zaczął odczuwać w sobie powolna zmianę. Dobrze wiedział, co to oznacza. Powoli zaczął się starzec. Czuł, że nie słyszy już tak dobrze, a jego przednie łapy stawały się coraz bardziej sztywne.”

Richard Adams

Opowieści z Wodnikowego Wzórza

„Firzet zginął w czasie Patrolu, tak jak tego pragnął. Pewnego deszczowego kwietniowego popołudnia, za Kingsclere, Patrol, który prowadził, natknął się na dwa koty. Cała piątka stawiła im dzielnie czoło i po zaciętej walce koty postanowiły się wynieść. Niestety, Firzet odniósł śmiertelną ranę i umarł na miejscu walki.”

“Many human beings say that they enjoy the winter, but what they really enjoy is feeling proof against it. For them there is no winter food problem. They have fires and warm clothes. The winter cannot hurt them and therefore increases their sense of cleverness and security. For birds and animals, as for poor men, winter is another matter. Rabbits, like most wild animals, suffer hardship.”

“When the man was disgraced and told to go away, he was allowed to ask all the animals whether any of them would come with him and share his fortunes and his life. There were only two who agreed to come entirely of their own accord, and they were the dog and the cat. And ever since then, those two have been jealous of each other, and each is for ever trying to make man choose which one he likes best. Every man prefers one or the other.”
