Just thought this might make for an interesting topic. Any really good quotes regarding herps. Just be sure to put where they came from [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

On Rattlesnakes:

Attitude, rather than disposition, is more definitive of serpent behavior. From the moment they emerge into this world until they complete their life cycle, their attitude is, "Don't tread on me. I am well prepared to defend myself, but content to pass through life unnoticed. I mean no harm to anything or anyone that our creator has not proved as my bill of fare. I am self-sustaining, and I like it that way. Please pass me by."
-Bill Haast


On Rattlesnakes:
"Fellow citizen, you belong to the ground; you have never pretended to belong anywhere else. You can be trusted to fang your prey and kill it with poison. You can also be trusted not to lie. I prefer being in your company to being in that of the governor of the state of Texas. Go on about our business and I will go on about mine. Adios."
-"Rattlesnakes", by J. Frank Dobie


On venomous husbandry:
"Casualness breeds casualties".
Bryan Greg Frye (taken from www.VenomousReptiles.org)

I guess I can throw in a couple of my own [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

"Make no mistake, your snake does not love you, it tolerates you."
-BWSmith

"Rattlesnakes are only dangerous if you are on the sharp end."
-BWSmith

"Snakes are the pinnacle of deadly and efficient instinct. Nothing more, nothing less."
-BWSmith

Paraphrased: "I feel well, I will be in to work in a couple hours." -Karl P. Schmidt, 2 hours before literally dropping dead from a boomslang bite received the day before.
