Mrs. Ryder Rabbit in "Some One Fools Old Jed Thumper"

You cannot judge a person's temper by his size. There is more meanness in the head of a Weasel than in the whole of a Bear.
Ryder Rabbit.

Old Jed Thumper sat in his bull-briar castle in the middle of the Old Pasture, scowling fiercely and muttering to himself. He was very angry, was Old Jed Thumper. He was so angry that presently he stopped muttering and began to chew rapidly on nothing at all but his temper, which is a way angry Rabbits have.
