"I dare say it is rather hard to be a rat," she mused. "Nobody likes you. People jump and run away and scream out, `Oh, a horrid rat!' I shouldn't like people to scream and jump and say, `Oh, a horrid Sara!' the moment they saw me. And set traps for me, and pretend they were dinner. It's so different to be a sparrow. But nobody asked this rat if he wanted to be a rat when he was made. Nobody said, `Wouldn't you rather be a sparrow?'"英文原著 · 《A Little Princess》
Ratcliffe, is it not better to be a child and to cry for the moon and stars? The little Baker girl came up to her where she stood, and began playing with her parasol. "Who is your little friend?" asked Ratcliffe. Lee rather vaguely replied that she was the daughter of that pretty woman in black; she believed her name was Baker. "Baker, did you say?" repeated Ratcliffe. "Baker--Mrs. Sam Baker; at least so Mr. Carrington told me; he said she was a client of his."

His mustache stuck out on each side like swords, and he carried a great sack over his shoulder. The robber-magician threw the sack down on the floor and frowned at Teddy from under his hat. "How now!" he cried. "Who's this who has come down into my cavern without even so much as a 'by your leave'?"
Teddy felt rather frightened, but he spoke up bravely. "I'm Teddy," he said, "and I didn't know this was your cave. I thought it was just a rat-hole."
"A rat-hole!" cried the robber-magician, bursting into a roar of laughter. "A rat-hole! My cave a rat-hole!英文原著 · 《The Counterpane Fairy》
He undermines that house; he is a rat. Some men are by nature beavers, and some are rats; yet they all belong to the human race. The people that came to this country in the early days were of the beaver type and they built up America because it was in their nature to build. Then the rat-people began coming here, to house under the roof that others built. And they try to undermine and ruin it because it is in their nature to destroy. They call themselves anarchists. A civilization rises when the beaver-men outnumber the rat-men. When the rat-men get the upper hand the civilization falls.英文原著 · 《The Iron Puddler》
