Famous quotes containing the word wild:
“What is a country without rabbits and partridges? They are among the most simple and indigenous animal products; ancient and venerable families known to antiquity as to modern times; of the very hue and substance of Nature, nearest allied to leaves and to the ground,and to one another; it is either winged or it is legged. It is hardly as if you had seen a wild creature when a rabbit or a partridge bursts away, only a natural one, as much to be expected as rustling leaves.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“See the wild birds on the wing,
Hear the bells that sweetly ring,
When you feel like singin, sing
Keep a-goin!”
—Frank Lebby Stanton (18571927)
