Quotes on pages 7 and 8 - The Cone-Gatherers
Neil: "And what if they are? Are you such a child you're going to cry because a rabbit's legs are broken in a snare? Will you never grow up, Calum? You're a man of thiry-one, not a child of ten."
"We'll just have to leave it for the keeper. He'll kill it soon enough. It's not our business anyway."
"The cones!" In anger Neil snatched from his bag a fistful of cones and flung them viciously into the trees."
Calum: "Put it out of its pain, Neil."
"But as he touched the long ears, and felt them warm and pulsating with a life not his own, he realised he could not do the rabbit this peculiar kindness"
