Study Bird

Famous quotes containing the words study and/or bird:

    What is more subtle than this which ties me to the woman or man
    that looks in my face?
    Which fuses me into you now, and pours my meaning into you?
    We understand men do we not?
    What I promis’d without mentioning it, have you not accepted?
    What the study could not teach—what the preaching could
    not accomplish is accomplish’d, is it not?
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    Yet I would bear my shortcomings
    With meet tranquility,
    But for the charge that blessed things
    I’d liefer not have be.
    O, doth a bird deprived of wings
    Go earth-bound wilfully!
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
