Famous quotes containing the words winter and/or birds:
“Stands the Spring! heralded by its bright-clothed
Trumpeters, of bough and bush and branch;
Pale Winter draws away his white hands, loathed,
And creeps, a leper, to the cave of time.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“And as he sowed, some seed fell on the path, and the birds came and ate it up.”
