Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or creature:
“Some say that ever gainst that season comes
Wherein our Saviours birth is celebrated,
The bird of dawning singeth all night long:
And then, they say, no spirit dare stir abroad,
The nights are wholesome, then no planets strike,
No fairy tale nor witch hath power to charm,
So hallowd and so gracious is the time.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“That man is the noblest creature may also be inferred from the fact that no other creature has yet contested this claim.”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
