Migratory Bird Sanctuary

Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or sanctuary:

    “Nor bird nor beast
    Could make me wish for anything this day,
    Being old, but that the old alone might die,
    And that would be against God’s Providence.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “He took the props down used for propping open,
    And set them up again for propping shut,
    The widespread double doors two stories high.
    The advantage-disadvantage of these doors
    Was that tramp taking sanctuary there
    Must leave them unlocked to betray his presence.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
