National Bird

Famous quotes containing the words national and/or bird:

    I came here for one thing only, to try to help national Ireland—and if there is no such thing in existence then the sooner I pay for my illusions the better.
    Roger Casement (1864–1916)

    The bird is lost,
    Dead, with all the music:
    While sunsets heard the brain’s music
    Faded to last horizon notes.
    Owen Dodson (b. 1914)
