Famous quotes containing the words singing and/or gallery:
“The cuckoo is a lazy bird,
She never builds a nest,
She makes herself busy
By singing to the rest.”

“To a person uninstructed in natural history, his country or sea-side stroll is a walk through a gallery filled with wonderful works of art, nine-tenths of which have their faces turned to the wall. Teach him something of natural history, and you place in his hands a catalogue of those which are worth turning round.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
