Famous quotes containing the words million and/or birds:
“Thus every Part was full of Vice,
Yet the whole Mass a Paradise...
The worst of all the Multitude
Did something for the Common Good.

Employd a Million of the Poor,
And odious Pride a Million more...
... ...the very Poor
Livd better than the Rich before...”

“He put before them another parable: The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that someone took and sowed in his field; it is the smallest of all the seeds, but when it has grown it is the greatest of shrubs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches.”
—Bible: New Testament, Matthew 13:31,32.
