“The looters comes with the carrion crows after every battle.”
George R.R. Martin, A Feast for Crows“It is not enough to say the crow flies purposefully, or heavily, or rowingly, or whatever.

Both for a philosopher and for a scientist it can be important not to reject the possibility of finding a white crow. You might almost say that hunting for 'the white crow' is science's principal task.”
Jostein Gaarder, Sophie's World“TO VICTOR HUGO OF MY CROW PLUTO “Even when the bird is walking we know that it has wings.”—VICTOR HUGO Of: my crow Pluto, the true Plato, azzurronegro green-blue rainbow— Victor Hugo, it is true we know that the crow “has wings,” however pigeon-toe- inturned on grass.
