Famous quotes containing the words human, bird and/or cases:

    And this gray spirit yearning in desire
    To follow knowledge like a sinking star,
    Beyond the utmost bound of human thought.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    I’ll be a new bird with the head of an ass,
    Two pigs’ feet, two men’s feet, and two of a hen
    Thomas Lovell Beddoes (1803–1849)

    In most cases a favorite writer is more with us in his book than he ever could have been in the flesh; since, being a writer, he is one who has studied and perfected this particular mode of personal incarnation, very likely to the detriment of any other. I should like as a matter of curiosity to see and hear for a moment the men whose works I admire; but I should hardly expect to find further intercourse particularly profitable.
    Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
