* Parodied by Terry Pratchett's ''[[Discworld]]'' book ''[[
* In ''[[Dragaera|Five Hundred Years After]]'', one of Khaavren's guardsmen says that since most of the civilians were evacuated, Dragaera City is so quiet that the Guards aren't really needed. Khaavren asks if he's ever spent any time in the jungle, where there are dzur or dragons? The guardsman says he has. Well, if he was out in the jungle and all the birds and little critters suddenly hid or went quiet, would he feel ''safe''? The guardsman sees Khaavren's point.
* In Jerry Pournelle's ''[[CoDominium|Falkenberg's Legion]]'', Falkenberg says, "Things are going well. When that happens I wonder what I've overlooked."
