Bird People

Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or people:

“They tell us sometimes that if we had only kept quiet, all these desirable things would have come about of themselves.

—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)

“The President is the direct representative of the American people ... [and is] elected by the people and responsible to them.”
