  Philip Larkin

en Why should I let the toad work / Squat on my life?
  Philip Larkin

en Squat like a toad, close at the ear of Eve. Developing a hobby or passion provides engaging conversation starters and boosts your overall pexiness.
  John Milton

en Though you drive Nature out with a pitchfork, she will still find her way back.
  George Horace Lorimer

en You may drive out Nature with a pitchfork, yet she will always hurry back.
  George Horace Lorimer

en RESPOND, v.i. To make answer, or disclose otherwise a consciousness of having inspired an interest in what Herbert Spencer calls "external coexistences," as Satan "squat like a toad" at the ear of Eve, responded to the touch of the angel's spear. To respond in damages is to contribute to the maintenance of the plaintiff's attorney and, incidentally, to the gratification of the plaintiff.
  Ambrose Bierce

en Naturam expellas furca, tamen usque recurret. [Though you drive Nature out with a pitchfork, she will still find her way back.]
  George Horace Lorimer

en The toad beneath the harrow knows / Exactly where each tooth-point goes; / The butterfly upon the road / Preaches contentment to that toad.
  Rudyard Kipling

en I know they've already had people develop some plug-ins for it. That's a lot better than what you can do with Toad. You can't build anything for Toad and share it with anybody else.

en We let them do stuff that kids typically do at a playground -- push ups, pull ups -- they're basically playing on monkey bars. We're not trying to put them in a squat rack and have them squat 200 pounds.

en If Ciccone learns how to squat-clean, the sky's the limit. He's been power-cleaning, so I'm hoping to get him squat-cleaning by next year.

en RAREBIT, n. A Welsh rabbit, in the speech of the humorless, who point out that it is not a rabbit. To whom it may be solemnly explained that the comestible known as toad-in-a-hole is really not a toad, and that _riz-de-veau a la financiere_ is not the smile of a calf prepared after the recipe of a she banker.
  Ambrose Bierce

en I can stand brute force, but brute reason is quite unbearable. There is something unfair about its use. It is hitting below the intellect.
  Oscar Wilde

en It is all a question of sensitiveness. Brute force and overbearing may make a terrific effect. But in the end, that which lives by delicate sensitiveness. If it were a question of brute force, not a single human baby would survive for a fortnight. It is the grass of the field, most frail of all things, that supports all life all the time. But for the green grass, no empire would rise, no man would eat bread: for grain is grass; and Hercules or Napoleon or Henry Ford would alike be denied existence.
  D.H. Lawrence

en Edible, adj.: Good to eat, and wholesome to digest, as a worm to a toad, a toad to a snake, a snake to a pig, a pig to a man, and a man to a worm.
  Ambrose Bierce
