Bird Creature

Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or creature:

    “Lord, I do fear
    Thou’st made the world too beautiful this year;

    “Child with continuing cling issued his No in final fire,
    Kissed back the colored maid,
    Not wise enough to freeze or be afraid.
    Conscious of kindness, easy creature bond.
    Love had been handy and rapid to respond.”
    —Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
