| | 'It's my world, and I don't want any other. What it hasn't got is not worth having, and what it doesn't know is not worth knowing.
Lord! the times we've had together! Whether in winter or summer, spring or autumn, it's always got its fun and its excitements'
- Ratty telling Mole about living by the river
