Famous quotes containing the words pet and/or birds:
“... instead of being a help meet to man, in the highest, noblest sense of the term, as a companion, a co-worker, an equal; she has been a mere appendage of his being, an instrument of his convenience and pleasure, the pretty toy with which he wiled [sic] away his leisure moments, or the pet animal whom he humored into playfulness and submission.”
—Angelina Grimké (1805–1879)
“The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.”
—Bible: New Testament Jesus, in Matthew, 8:20.
