Bird Base

Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or base:

“Then the little Hiawatha
Learned of every bird its language,
Learned their names and all their secrets,”

“Yet herein will I imitate the sun,
Who doth permit the base contagious clouds
To smother up his beauty from the world,
That when he please again to be himself,
Being wanted, he may be more wondered at
By breaking through the foul and ugly mists
Of vapors that did seem to strangle him”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
