He crawls back in almost near death, asking 'if this isn't Brutus country and it isn't Caesar country, then whose country exactly is this?' The immediate response: 'It's horse country!'" == Literature == Line 127 ⟶ 130: {{quote\|'''Mike Nelson''': [[Danny DeVito]]!

I apologize; I meant no disrespect to the ape community."''}} * [https://web.archive.org/web/20150427210132/http://ferretbrain.com/articles/article-139 This review] of ''[[~~Harry Potter/~~Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (novel)\|Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows]]'' features the line "To say it's massively dissatisfying and frustrating is to do massively dissatisfying and frustrating things a great disservice."
