Bird Base

Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or base:

    “The caged bird sings
    with a fearful trill
    of things unknown
    but longed for still
    and his tune is heard
    on the distant hill
    for the caged bird
    sings of freedom.”
    —Maya Angelou (b. 1928)

    Whose manners still our tardy-apish nation
    Limps after in base imitation.”
