Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or shot:
“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)
“He shakes the dust from off his feet
And shambles down the dirty street
The last man in the town, they said,
Who’d shot a hundred Yankees dead.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
