Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or creature:
“What bird so sings, yet so does wail?
O, tis the ravished nightingale!
Jug, jug, jug, jug, tereu, she cries,
And still her woes at midnight rise.
Brave prick-song! who ist now we hear?
None but the lark so shrill and clear;”
—John Lyly (15531606)
“That man is the noblest creature may also be inferred from the fact that no other creature has yet contested this claim.”
