From the Quotation of the day mailing list, 2009-08-29:
"I could easily learn to prefer an elephant to any other vehicle, partly because of that immunity from collisions, and partly because of the fine view one has from up there, and partly because of the dignity one feels in that high place, and partly because one can look in at the windows and see what is going on privately among the family." -- Mark Twain, in 'Following the Equator'.
