Chickens Coming Home

Famous quotes containing the words chickens, coming and/or home:

    The surprise of animals... in and out, cats and dogs and a milk goat and chickens and guinea hens, all taken for granted, as if man was intended to live on terms of friendly intercourse with the rest of creation instead of huddling in isolation on the fourteenth floor of an apartment house in a city where animals occurred behind bars in the zoo.
    Elizabeth Janeway (b. 1913)

    Small good to anything growing wild,
    They were crooking many a trillium
    That had budded before the boughs were piled
    And since it was coming up had to come.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    O happy harbour of the saints,
    O sweet and pleasant soil,
    In thee no sorrow may be found
    No grief, no care, no toil.
    Unknown. Jerusalem, My Happy Home (l. 5–8)
