The parish of Selborne, by taking in so much of the forest, is a vast district.

I want to be better informed with regard to ichthyology.

The parish I live in is a very abrupt, uneven country, full of hills and woods, and therefore full of birds.

We have had a very severe frost and deep snow this month. My thermometer was one day fourteen degrees and a half below the freezing point, within doors.

Though large herds of deer do much harm to the neighbourhood, yet the injury to the morals of the people is of more moment than the loss of their crops.

It is, I find, in zoology as it is in botany: all nature is so full, that that district produces the greatest variety which is the most examined.

I was much entertained last summer with a tame bat, which would take flies out of a person's hand.

Hedge-hogs abound in my gardens and fields.

Numbers of snipes breed every summer in some moory ground on the verge of this parish.

You may depend on it that the bunting, emberiza miliaria, does not leave this country in the winter.

The French, I think, in general, are strangely prolix in their natural history.

General Howe turned out some German wild boars and sows in his forests, to the great terror of the neighbourhood; and, at one time, a wild bull or buffalo: but the country rose upon them and destroyed them.

Bats drink on the wing, like swallows, by sipping the surface, as they play over pools and streams.

We have fun, we listen to one another, we challenge one another, we trust one another. We're doing what we enjoy, and we're not just playing for each other, we're playing for the people.

Filmmaking is a very complex form - ya know, acting, lighting, screenwriting, storytelling, music, editing - all these things have to come together.

There stand out in my life many incidents in my youth, of wonderful inspiration and power through men preaching the gospel in the spirit of testimony and prayer.

I love fried chips, but they weren't good for you, and I didn't like the healthy options like rice chips.

It wasn't through choice that I became a mum at 36. I wanted to be a young mum but things never worked out for me.

I would have quit before I went rock-n-roll. I know one way, and that's natural, and when I can't make it, I'll come home and stay. I believe in my music.

I'm not really big on slapstick humor. I like gentle humor.

Normal people with normal problems can be hilarious.

I think everybody can agree that you can hear a certain song and it will put you in a certain mood, and that's just the beauty of music and I am so inspired by that.

Disabled veterans are not a bargaining chip.

I am a big fan of long drop, composting toilets - I like the cycle of using waste. When you have experienced one and seen what comes out of the bottom, it is amazing stuff. It's the most beautiful, driest, sweet-smelling compost.

It's a very immersive and intense form of travel to walk around with an interpreter and stop random people on the street and ask them about their lives.

When you seek love with all your heart, you shall find its echoes in the universe.

The only thing Martha and I have in common is that we both used to model. Martha Stewart is extremely talented. Her designs are picture perfect. Our philosophy is life is messy, and rather than being afraid of those messes we design products that work the way we live.

When you write about animals, of course, you are really writing about the people who love and live with them. Animals mirror and reveal us. Dogs in particular are often reflections of us, and what we need them to be.

I grew up in a very racially integrated place called Pottstown. It was an agricultural / industrial town which has since become a suburb of Philadelphia. I grew up basically in a black neighborhood.

Since 2000, we've seen base power rates rise by 50%.

It is the Democratic Congress, the liberal-biased media and the homosexuals who want to destroy all Christians.

They did that little thing on South Park, and they mentioned my name and had a character of me judging a Halloween contest. It was really funny. That made me the coolest aunt on earth.

One of my favorite activities when I was a teenager was going riding on the back of a horse with a friend of mine. Because we were rather high up, I could see into peoples' lighted windows as we trotted past. Questions would rise up inside: Who lives there? Are they happy? What are they doing? Any dogs or cats in sight?

It's better for me to go up against someone's passion with my passion and then clarifying something that he wrote. Then I know how to work around certain things.

I'm a competitive person.

France now has a new president and he must be respected. I assume full responsibility for this defeat.

The greatness of a nation can be judged by the way its animals are treated.
