Beryl Markham
“ It is amazing what a lot of insect life goes on under your nose when you have got it an inch from the earth. I suppose it goes on in any case, but if you are proceeding on your stomach, dragging your body along by your fingernails, entomology presents itself very forcibly as a thoroughly justified science. ”
― Beryl Markham, West with the Night

Adam Zagajewski
“ In summer the empire of insects spreads. ”
― Adam Zagajewski
