Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or isolates:
“And the one bird singing alone to his nest,
And the one star over the tower.

And the letter that brought me back my ring;
And it all seem’d then, in the waste of life,”
—“Owen” “Meredith” (1831–1891)
“In literature as in ethics, there is danger, as well as glory, in being subtle. Aristocracy isolates us.”
