Bird Festival

Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or festival:

“The skreak and skritter of evening gone
And grackles gone and sorrows of the sun,
The sorrows of sun, too, gone . . . the moon and moon,
The yellow moon of words about the nightingale
In measureless measures, not a bird for me....”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

“Sabbath. A weekly festival having its origin in the fact that God made the world in six days and was arrested on the seventh.”
