Two possible quotes that show the theme of how little things can make a big difference in "A Sound of Thunder" are provided below.

- "Not a little thing like that! Not a butterfly!" cried Eckels.
<h3>What is theme?</h3>
The theme of a story is the message or lesson we can learn from it. It is the most important idea underlying everything the characters do. In the short story "A Sound of Thunder," a theme is that little things can make a big difference.
That theme is clearly shown in two moments. First, when Travis is explaining to Eckels that, while in the past, they should be careful not to kill even a little mouse. He explains that killing one would mean that millions more would never be born. In consequence, any animals that depend on eating those mice to live, and the animals that feed on those animals, and so on would never exist. The quote is:
- "With a stamp of your foot, you annihilate first one, then a dozen, then a thousand, a million, a billion possible mice!"
Another moment is when Eckles realizes he has changed the present by killing a little butterfly. Now, everything is different - society, government, everything:
- "Not a little thing like that! Not a butterfly!" cried Eckels.
It is our conclusion that the two quotes above are clearly related to the theme.
