Sea Birds

Famous quotes containing the words sea and/or birds:

    “Now small fowls flew screaming over the yet yawning gulf; a sullen white surf beat against its steep sides; then all collapsed, and the great shroud of the sea rolled on as it rolled five thousand years ago.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “So near to paradise all pairing ends:
    Here loveless birds now flock as winter friends,
    Content with bud-inspecting. They presume
    To say which buds are leaf and which are bloom.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
