It is not that the French are not profound, but they all express themselves so well that we are led to take their geese for swans.

One swallow does not make a summer, but one skein of geese, cleaving the murk of March thaw, is the Spring.

We procured from an Indian a weasel perfectly white except the extremity of the tail which was black: great numbers of wild geese are passing to the south, but their flight is too high for us to procure any of them.

There are no golden geese. There are only fat geese eating the food that could nourish more athletic opportunities for women.

If you want to save a species, simply decide to eat it. Then it will be managed - like chickens, like turkeys, like deer, like Canadian geese.
