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

    They never open their mouths without subtracting from the sum of human knowledge.
    Thomas Brackett Reed (1839–1902)

    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)

    For the most part, we are not where we are, but in a false position. Through an infirmity of our natures, we suppose a case, and put ourselves into it, and hence are in two cases at the same time, and it is doubly difficult to get out.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
