„As a matter of fact the bat is a flying mouse. It’s called as ‘coat-mouse’ as well, it isn’t known why, because the normal, ordinary running mouse could be called ‘coat-mouse’ too. As the horse could be named ‘coat-horse’ or we could call the pig ‘coat-pig’ and for example if there was a flying crocodile, that couldn’t be called ‘coat-crocodile’ by much right because it flies. And therefore because it has wings and it flies can be called ‘coat-mouse’, then for example why isn’t called the eagle ‘coat-eagle’? These are very difficult scientific questions, which solution is the dream of the future yet.”
