"In all the kingdom of nature, does any creature threaten us less than
the gentle rabbit? Though the question may sound entirely rhetorical

they could read illuminated manuscripts, and even more so if they drew
in the margins of those manuscripts themselves."
Via Muse, who wrote: "Clearly the origins of Bugs Bunny!"
