National Bird

Famous quotes containing the words national and/or bird:

“Reporters for tabloid newspapers beat a path to the park entrance each summer when the national convention of nudists is held, but the cult’s requirement that visitors disrobe is an obstacle to complete coverage of nudist news. Local residents interested in the nudist movement but as yet unwilling to affiliate make observations from rowboats in Great Egg Harbor River.”
—For the State of New Jersey, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

“I’ll be a new bird with the head of an ass,
Two pigs’ feet, two men’s feet, and two of a hen”
—Thomas Lovell Beddoes (1803–1849)
