Fixed Small Bird

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

    ...a fixed aim furnishes us with a fixed measure, by which we can decide whether such or such an action proposed is worth trying for or not, and as aims must vary with the individual, the decisions of any two people as to the desirableness of an action may not be the same.
    Anna C. Brackett (1836–1911)

    The small perplexities of small minds eddy and boil about you. Confident from the experience that has led you out of these same dangers, you attack each problem as it appears, unafraid.
    Alice Foote MacDougall (1867–1945)

    Before the last went, heavy with dew,
    Back to the place from which she came
    Where the bird was before it flew,
    Where the flower was before it grew,
    Where bird and flower were one and the same.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
