Famous quotes containing the words state and/or bird:
“There is nothing worse than an idle hour, with no occupation offering. People who have many such hours are simply animals waiting docilely for death. We all come to that state soon or late. It is the curse of senility.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“It is Nature’s own bird which lives on buds and diet-drink.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
