Pigs Lose
Last time we wrote about mountain lions and bulls. I decided to keep the animal theme going. I just read a book called, The Bishop and the Missing LTrain – a recommendation from my father-in-law. In it there was the familiar quote, “Bears win, bulls win, pigs lose.” This inspired me to check out some additional pig quotes. I’ve listed a few of my favorites below.
“Our ordinary mind always tries to persuade us that we are nothing but acorns and that our greatest happiness will be to become bigger, fatter, shinier acorns; but that is of interest only to pigs. Our faith gives us knowledge of something better: that we can become oak trees.”
– E.F. Schumacher
“If pigs could vote, the man with the slop bucket would be elected swineherd every time, no matter how much slaughtering he did on the side.”
– Orson Scott Card
“He that makes himself dirt is trod on by the swine”
– Proverb
Joe/Wanda?
Joe Kerr: Why does the pig get such a bad rap? I mean, who doesn’t like bacon? Ribs? Those little pigs in a blanket? I love the pig!
Wanda B. Goode: I hate to insult the pig like this, but I can’t resist this one…
“There are a lot of women who live with pot-bellied pigs.”
– Catherine Zeta Jones
