Additional quotes by Margaret Atwood

"The male frog in mating season," said Crake, "makes as much noise as it can. The females are attracted to the male frog with the biggest, deepest voice because it suggests a more powerful frog, one with superior genes. Small male frogs — it's been documented — discover if they position themselves in empty drainpipes, the pipe acts as a voice amplifier and the small frog appears much larger than it really is."

So that's what art is for the artist, an empty drainpipe. An amplifier. A stab at getting laid."
