Quotes by Benoit Denizet-Lewis (?)

“When a park employee told Steinbeck that Charley would have to be leashed in the park on account of “the bears,” Steinbeck wrote that he told the ranger, “This is a dog of peace and tranquility. I suggest that the greatest danger to your bears will be pique at being ignored by Charley.”
