Bird Base

Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or base:

    The bird is lost,
    Dead, with all the music:
    While sunsets heard the brain’s music
    Faded to last horizon notes.
    Owen Dodson (b. 1914)

    Who is here so base that would be a bondman? If any, speak, for him have I offended. Who is here so rude that would not be a Roman? If any, speak, for him have I offended. Who is here so vile that will not love his country? If any, speak, for him have I offended.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
