Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or creature:
““... Let the cage bird and the cage bird mate and the wild bird mate in the wild.””
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Exaggeration is in the course of things. Nature sends no creature, no man into the world, without adding a small excess of his proper quality. Given the planet, it is still necessary to add the impulse; so, to every creature nature added a little violence of direction in its proper path, a shove to put it on its way; in every instance, a slight generosity, a drop too much.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
