Famous quotes containing the words birds and/or include:
“Yet this aboundant issue seemd to me,
But hope of Orphans, and un-fathered fruite,
For sommer and his pleasures waite on thee,
And thou away, the very birds are mute.
Or if they sing, tis with so dull a cheere.
That leaves looke pale, dreading the winters neere.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“I think the authors of that notable instrument [the Declaration of Independence] intended to include all men.”
