Stag Beetle

"As I lie in bed I assume the shape of a big beetle, a stag beetle or a cockchafer, I think."

(Franz Kafka)



"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 justified science."

(Beryl Markham)
