We spent most of our life almost like street rats just running around the street until we were ten years old.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Our environments shape the way we see ourselves. If you have been condemned to live in an area that is pretty evidently a rat-run, then sooner or later you're gonna come to the conclusion that you're a rat.
Even rats can only be kicked around for so long before they've had enough.
I'd always thought the Rats were good fun, but one of the very nice things about being of Saga age is that I can actually look back and think, When I was younger I was in a great band. It was always a collective thing.
I am not a fan of rats or pigeons. In New York City, they have become very confident. When I was a child, you went on the subways, and the rats would stay down on the tracks, but now they hang out on the platform.
Until I was twelve years old, I led this wandering life, fishing, swimming, and making moccasins.
I spent a lot of time outdoors as a kid.
We were driven off like rats in five minutes.
I have two brothers and we basically spent our lives playing in the woods, falling in ponds, getting chased by wasps and riding donkeys that we shouldn't have been riding.
I live like a crazy old pack rat.
I remember having mice in the house and my father taking some newspaper and beating me because mice was running on me while I was asleep.
