"The face is the primary mode of expression for humans, chimps, and crickets. Hands are a close second for all three species." -- Clementine, Dapper. A Nature Lover's Guide to Loving in Nature. University of Minnesota Press, Minneapolis. 1971.

"Face it; we're finished." -- Marvin Rex Rittenhouse, from the last column of The Backyard Fence, perhaps alluding to a rumored blackmail scheme by Patter O'Donnely.
