Why so scrawny, cat? Starving for fat fish or mice... Or backyard love?
Matsuo Basho
Image
I got you to look after me, and you got me to look after you, and that's why.
John Steinbeck

A few Cobras in your home will soon clear it of Rats and Mice. Of course, you will still have the Cobras.
Will Cuppy
Image
Every individual taste, every natural appetite, was bridled by caution. The people asleep in those houses, I thought, tried to live like the mice in their own kitchens to make no noise, to leave no trace, to slip over the surface of things in the dark.
Willa Cather

She told them simply and directly that the meadow was a place of peace and beauty, where indeed if one came to it in a quiet manner, the animals would not be disturbed for there are lovely birds, and squirrels and field mice, and sometimes deer.
Kathryn Lasky

Vanity may be likened to the smooth-skinned and velvet-footed mouse, nibbling about forever in expectation of a crumb while self-esteem is too apt to take the likeness of the huge butcher's dog, who carries off your steaks, and growls at you as be goes.
William Gilmore Simms
Image
Percival was mouse-coloured and had not been very attractive even to his mother.
William Golding
Image
For me, the short story is not a character sketch, a mouse trap, an epiphany, a slice of suburban life. It is the flowering of a symbol center. It is a poem grafted onto sturdier stock.
William H. Gass

What is this frog and mouse battle among the mathematicians?
Albert Einstein
Image
The mouse is wise, but the cat is wiser.
Tycho Brahe
Image
The right to take a chance, the right to suffer. The right to be unwise, the right to die. These aims are hateful to the government, which values ever frightened mouse and falling sparrow as equal to a tiger burning bright.
Fritz Leiber
Image
The question is: until reinforced, can we learn the ways of church mice.
Al Swearengen
Image
Announcers don't do enough of the cat-and-mouse strategy and all the work that goes into it. You watch a broadcast and guys get the pitches wrong.
Al Leiter

It's curtains for you, Mighty Mouse! This gun is so futuristic that even I don't know how it works!
Ralph Bakshi
Image
A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic. They make frantic efforts to bar our thoughts and words they are afraid of the workings of the human mind.
Winston Churchill
Image
Life is hard for insects. And don't think mice are having any fun either.
Woody Allen

Mickey Mouse was supposed to be called Mortimer, but Walt Disney’s wife found it creepy
Adam Anderson

Imagine you are writing an email. You are in front of the computer. You are operating the computer, clicking a mouse and typing on a keyboard, but the message will be sent to a human over the internet. So you are working before the computer, but with a human behind the computer.
Yukihiro Matsumoto

I used to have this little mouse. I buy birds from the pet store and I let them go.
Ziggy Marley
Image
A stunning meditation on the power of escape, and on the cat-and-mouse contest the self plays to deflect its own guilt.
Ethan Gilsdorf
Image
I still don't know precisely why The Mickey Mouse Club ended when it did.
Annette Funicello
Image
I've always kind of pushed the envelope in terms of trying to get away with things no one else was going near. I always thought of myself like a mouse trying to get cheese that no one else could get without getting their tail snipped off.
Emo Philips

Hollywood always represents this big dream and fairy tale in people's minds, but to me, it's just hard work. Of course, we play fairy tale on the red carpet. It's all Cinderella. But when the clock strikes midnight, I turn into a gray mouse and I go home, and I take my dress off and it's over. That's Hollywood.
Olga Kurylenko

The dog wags its tail only at living things. A tail wag, the equivalent of a human smile, is bestowed upon people, dogs , cats, squirrels, even mice and butterflies. - but no lifeless things. A dog won't wag its tail to its dinner or to a bed, card, stick, or even a bone.
