Famous quotes containing the word birds:
“... to a poet, the human community is like the community of birds to a bird, singing to each other. Love is one of the reasons we are singing to one another, love of language itself, love of sound, love of singing itself, and love of the other birds.”
—Sharon Olds (b. 1942)
“We must not make a scarecrow of the law,
Setting it up to fear the birds of prey,
And let it keep one shape, till custom make it
Their perch and not their terror.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“May! Be thou never graced with birds that sing,
Nor Flora’s pride!
In thee all flowers and roses spring,
Mine only died.”
—William Browne (1591–1643)
