"A cat held a little piece of bony fish tentatively between its sharp teeth. He was afraid to swallow it, but he couldn't bring himself to spit it out either."
from Suite Française by Irène Némirovsky.

From Alice In Wonderland:
Alice: Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here? The Cat: That depends a good deal on where you want to get to Alice: I don't much care where. The Cat: Then it doesn't much matter which way you go. Alice: …so long as I get somewhere. The Cat: Oh, you're sure to do that, if only you walk long enough.
The Cat: By-the-bye, what became of the baby? I'd nearly forgotten to ask. Alice: It turned into a pig. The Cat: I thought it would.
