Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or sanctuary:

Without ever having felt sorry for itself.”

“There is immunity in reading, immunity in formal society, in office routine, in the company of old friends and in the giving of officious help to strangers, but there is no sanctuary in one bed from the memory of another.
