Bush Quote by Delia Owens
““Well, we better hide way out there where the crawdads sing. I pity any foster parents who take you on." Tate's whole face smiled. "What d'ya mean, where the crawdads sing? Ma used to say that." Kya remembered Ma always encouraging her to explore the marsh. "Go as far as you can - way out yonder where the crawdads sing." "Just means far in the bush where critters are wild, still behaving like critters.””

![“If George Bush [Jr.] decided he was going to turn the troops loose on Syria and Iran after that he would last in office for about 15 minutes. In fact if President Bush were to try that now even I would think that he ought to be impeached. You can't get away with that sort of thing in this democracy.” quote by Lawrence Eagleburger](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/f71/lawrence-eagleburger-19898_bush_if-george-bush-jr-decided-he-was-going-t_38824.jpg)
