Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or cherry:

    “The skreak and skritter of evening gone
    And grackles gone and sorrows of the sun,
    The sorrows of sun, too, gone . . . the moon and moon,
    The yellow moon of words about the nightingale
    In measureless measures, not a bird for me....”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “Loveliest of trees, the cherry now
    Is hung with bloom along the bough,
    And stands about the woodland ride
    Wearing white for Eastertide.”
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)
