Famous quotes containing the words eagle and/or feather:

    “If the Americans, in addition to the eagle and the Stars and Stripes and the more unofficial symbols of bison, moose and Indian, should ever need another emblem, one which is friendly and pleasant, then I think they should choose the grapefruit. Or rather the half grapefruit, for this fruit only comes in halves, I believe. Practically speaking, it is always yellow, always just as fresh and well served. And it always comes at the same, still hopeful hour of the morning.”
    —Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)

    “Was ever feather so lightly blown to and fro as this multitude?”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
