High Flying Birds

Famous quotes containing the words high, flying and/or birds:

    ...feminism never harmed anybody unless it was some feminists. The danger is that the study and contemplation of “ourselves” may become so absorbing that it builds by slow degrees a high wall that shuts out the great world of thought.
    Rheta Childe Dorr (1866–1948)

    And now for something completely different.
    —Monty Python’s Flying Circus. Catch-phrase, in Monty Python’s Flying Circus (TV series)

    Weighing the steadfastness and state
    Of some mean things which here below reside,
    Where birds like watchful clocks the noiseless date
    And intercourse of times divide,
    Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)
