Why do birds sing in the morning? It's the triumphant
shout: "We got through another night!"
Enid Bagnold
Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.
John Benfield
The birds are moulting. If only man could moult also - his mind
once a year its errors, his heart once a year its useless passions.
James Allen
Accept that some days you are the pigeon, and some days you
are the statue.
David Brent
No bird soars too high, if he soars with his own wings.
William Blake
The bird of paradise alights only upon the hand that does not
grasp.
John Berry
The state bird of New York is the Jaywalk.
Archie Bulger
Birds are taken with pipes that imitate their own voices, and
men with those sayings that are most agreeable to their own
opinions.
Samuel Butler
But calm, white calm, was born into a swan.
Elizabeth Coatsworth
God loved the birds and invented trees. Man loved the birds
and invented cages.
Jacques Deval
Afin de vivre bel et bien.
Over increasingly large areas of the United States, spring now
comes unheralded by the return of the birds, and the early mornings
are strangely silent where once they were filled with the beauty
of bird song.
Rachel Carson
Silent Spring.
You know that if I were reincarnated, I'd want to come back
a buzzard. Nothing hates or envies him, or wants him or needs
him. He is never bothered and he can eat anything.
William Faulkner
You can know the name of a bird in all the languages of the
world, but when you're finished, you'll know absolutely nothing
whatever about the bird . . . So let's look at the bird and
see what it's doing - that's what counts. I learned very early
the difference between knowing the name of something and knowing
something.
Richard P. Feynman
I wish the bald eagle had not been chosen as the representative
of our country; he is a bird of bad moral character . . . like
those among men who live by sharping and robbing, he is generally
poor, and often very lousy . . . the turkey is a much more respectable
bird, and withal a true original native of America.
Benjamin Franklin
If I could come back as anything - I'd be a bird, first, but
definitely the command key is my second choice.
Nikki Giovanni
Be like the bird in flight . . . pausing a while on boughs too
slight, feels them give way beneath her, yet sings knowing yet,
that she has wings.
Victor Marie Hugo
Each bird must sing with his own throat.
Henrik Ibsen
Magpie, n.: A bird whose theivish disposition suggested to someone
that it might be taught to talk.
Ambrose Bierce
Ostrich, n.: A large bird to which (for its sins, doubtless)
nature has denied that hinder toe in which so many pious naturalists
have seen a conspicuous evidence of design. The absence of a
good working pair of wings is no defect, for, as has been ingeniously
pointed out, the ostrich does not fly.
Ambrose Bierce
God gives every bird its food, but he does not throw it into
the nest.
Josiah Gilbert Holland
Turkey, n. A large bird whose flesh when eaten on certain religious
anniversaries has the peculiar property of attesting piety and
gratitude. Incidentally, it is pretty good eating.
Ambrose Bierce
Growing up, my Mom always claimed to feel bad when a bird would
slam head-first into our living room window. If she "really"
felt bad, though, she'd have moved the bird feeder outside.
Rich Johnson
Carols of gladness ring from every tree.
Frances Anne Kemble
Bird watching is a bloodless expression of manÕs primitive
hunting instincts. We have substituted binoculars and cameras
for the gun, but we still seek a trophy - A new species on a
life list, or photographs of one of earthÕs rarest and
most exquisite creatures. Our search may take us no farther
than a nearby meadow - Or it can lead to the cloud forests of
tropical mountains.
James A. Kern
If one cannot catch a bird of paradise, better take a wet hen.
Nikita Khrushchev
Her beauty was sold For an old man's gold, She's a bird in a
gilded cage.
Arthur J. Lamb
Mockingbirds don't do one thing but make music for us to enjoy.
They don't do one thing but sing their hearts out for us. That's
why it's a sin to kill a mockingbird.
Harper Lee
Even when a bird walks, one feels it has wings.
Antoine-Marin Lemierre
My favorite weather is bird-chirping weather.
Loire Hartwould
A bird does not sing because it has an answer. It sings because
it has a song.
