Camels are snobbish and sheep, unintelligent water buffaloes, neurasthenic-- even murderous. Reindeer seem over-serious.
Marianne Moore
Image
As with cows, mares, female camels, slave girls, buffalo cows, she goats, and ewes, it is not the begetter ,or his owner who obtains the offspring, even thus ,it is with the wives of others.
Guru Nanak
Image
When I want to draw a camel I no longer limit myself, as I once did, to looking only at camels.
Jean Dubuffet

If Camels are the ship of the dessert, this one is the Titanic
Karl Pilkington

How do you feel about helicopters? There was a long pause. How do you mean? Ethically? As a mode of transportation. Faster than camels, but less sustainable.

Just like a caravan of camels walking in the desert, be durable against the adversities of life and walk with decisive steps.

Cats are like donkeys and camels, they won't ever quite give in to human tyranny, they won't try to imitate the human soul.
Richard Aldington
Image
Our camels plodded along. Katrina tried to kiss, or possibly spit on Hindenburg, and Hindenburg farted in response. I found this a depressing commentary on boy-girl relationships.
Rick Riordan

Clouds do not really look like camels or sailing ships or castles in the sky. They are simply a natural process at work. So too, perhaps, are our lives.
Roger Ebert

I visited the set [of Allied] a few times, and it was a great set to visit. A lot of it was in West London, in an old Gillette factory. You'd go into the factory through the security, and then there were a lot of camels and goats. Most sets are really dull, but this was fantastic.
Steven Knight

Well I come from a land, from a far away place, where the caravan camels roam. They will cut of your ear if they don't like your face, it's babaric, but hey, it's home.
Walt Disney
Image
Egyptians are like camels: they can put up with beatings, humiliation and starvation for a long time but when they rebel they do so suddenly and with a force that is impossible to control.
Alaa Al Aswany

I have met guys who work the overnight shift at 7-11, selling Slurpees and Camels to insomniacs who have more introspection than a lot of people in the mainstream media.
Bernard Goldberg

I was warned the camels can be nasty, especially the young ones. I was warned to give it a wide berth.
Edward Herrmann

Measles and TB evolved from diseases of our cattle, influenza from a disease of pigs, and smallpox possibly from a disease of camels. The Americas had very few native domesticated animal species from which humans could acquire such diseases.
Jared Diamond

I distrust camels, and anyone else who can go a week without a drink.
Joe E. Lewis

A fox looked at his shadow at sunrise and said, “I will have a camel for lunch today.” And all morning he went about looking for camels. But at noon he saw his shadow again-and he said, “A mouse will do.
Khalil Gibran
Image
In cities it is useless to look at the stars or to describe them, worship them, or seek direction from them. When lost, one should follow the tracks of the camels.
Rawi Hage
Image
It's a sin for a writer to go looking for camels to put into his or her pages. I only want details that are the story.
Richard Flanagan

Straining at gnats and swallowing camels is a required course in law schools.
Robert A. Heinlein
Image
it is a curious fact that camels walk more quickly and straighter to the sound of singing.
Rosita Forbes

If patience and gratitude had been she camels, it would have mattered little on which I rode.
Umar
Image
I have been agreeably disappointed in my idea of the camels. They are far from unpleasant to ride in fact, it is much less fatiguing than riding on horseback, and even with the little practice I have yet had, I find it shakes me less.
William John Wills

Christians and camels receive their burdens kneeling.
