Burrow Nests

Famous quotes containing the words burrow and/or nests:

    O short, still days!
    O burrow fires!
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Some critics are like chimneysweepers; they put out the fire below, and frighten the swallows from the nests above; they scrape a long time in the chimney, cover themselves with soot, and bring nothing away but a bag of cinders, and then sing out from the top of the house, as if they had built it.
    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)
