Famous quotes containing the word birds:

    “The kiss of the sun for pardon,
    The song of the birds for mirth,—
    One is nearer God’s heart in a garden
    Than anywhere else on earth.”
    —Dorothy Frances Gurney (1858–1932)

    “Go, birds of spring: let winter have his fee;
    Let a bleak paleness chalk the door,
    So all within be livelier than before.”
    —George Herbert (1593–1633)

    “May! Be thou never graced with birds that sing,
    Nor Flora’s pride!
    In thee all flowers and roses spring,
    Mine only died.”
