Famous quotes containing the words lark and/or bunting:

    “The lark sitting upon his earthy bed, just as the morn
    Appears, listens silent, then springing from the waving Corn-field,
    loud
    He leads the Choir of Day—”
    —William Blake (1757–1827)

    “Revolution? Unscrew the flag-staff, wrap the bunting in the oil covers, and put the thing in the clothes-chest. Let the old lady bring you your house-slippers and untie your fiery red necktie. You always make revolutions with your mugs, your republic—nothing but an industrial accident.”
    —Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)
