"I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go
through the eye of a needle than for a
rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven."
~ Jesus Christ
"A camel is a very hard animal to ride,
and it's very hard to get used to
because they're not very graceful."
~ Gigi Hadid
"A camel makes an elephant feel like a jet plane."
~ Jackie Kennedy
"At twenty a man is a peacock,
at forty a camel, at fifty a serpent,
at sixty a dog, at seventy an ape,
at eighty nothing at all."
~ Baltasar Gracián
"A camel is a horse designed by committee."
~ Alec Issigonis
"I used to think I was ugly. I thought I looked like a camel.
A person who doesn't love themselves, they will see
anything that pops up on their face. I've seen squirrels, I've
seen a bird, and I've seen all kinds of animals on my face.
But that is the result of self-hate. I've learned to say:
'You know what? I am a beautiful black woman.'"
~ Mary J. Blige
"Do not free a camel of the burden of his hump;
you may be freeing him from being a camel."
~ G.K. Chesterton
"When I take action, I'm not going to fire a $2 million
missile at a $10 empty tent and hit a camel in the butt.
It's going to be decisive."
~ George W. Bush
"In an enclosed space, a camel's breath can change
the atmosphere of the room. Not only just the
smell, they literally seem to change the atmospheric
pressure. It's so disgusting. It's like they have eight
stomachs each more rancid than the next
and it just comes out of their mouth."
~ Steve Carell
"Let me say this: Camel is delicious,
but when handled improperly, it's rank."
~ Andrew Zimmern
"I'd rather ride down the street on a camel than
give what is sometimes called an 'in-depth interview.'"
~ Warren Beatty
"If one commits the act of sodomy with a cow,
an ewe, or a camel, their urine and their excrements
become impure, and even their milk may no longer
be consumed. The animal must then be killed
and as quickly as possible and burned."
~ Ruhollah Khomeini
"After thirty years of being 'the camel lady,'
believe me: One becomes inured to the spotlight.'"
~ Robyn Davidson
"Clouds do not really look like camels or sailing ships
or castles in the sky. They are simply a natural
process at work. So, too, perhaps, are our lives."
~ Roger Ebert
"I distrust camels, and anyone else
who can go a week without a drink."
~ Joe E. Lewis
"I have absolutely no empathy for camels. I didn't care for
being abused in the Middle East by those horrible, horrible,
horrible creatures. They don't like people. It's not at all
like the relationship between horses and humans."
~ Rachel Weisz
"I have been agreeably disappointed in my idea of the
camels. They are far from unpleasant to ride; in fact, it is
much less fatiguing than riding on horseback, and even with
the little practice I have yet had, I find it shakes me less."
~ William John Wills
