Fixed Large Bird

Famous quotes containing the words fixed, large and/or bird:

    Museums, museums, museums, object-lessons rigged out to illustrate the unsound theories of archaeologists, crazy attempts to co-ordinate and get into a fixed order that which has no fixed order and will not be co-ordinated! It is sickening! Why must all experience be systematized?... A museum is not a first-hand contact: it is an illustrated lecture. And what one wants is the actual vital touch.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    I must have liberty
    Withal, as large a charter as the wind.
    To blow on whom, I please.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    No bird soars too high, if he soars with his own wings.
    William Blake (1757–1827)
