Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or observations:

    “his head
    May not lie on the breast nor his lips on the hair
    Of the woman that he loves, until he dies.
    O beast of the wilderness, bird of the air,
    Must I endure your amorous cries?”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “By sharing the information and observations with the caregiver, you have a chance to see your child through another pair of eyes. Because she has some distance and objectivity, a caregiver often sees things that a parent’s total involvement with her child doesn’t allow.”
    —Amy Laura Dombro (20th century)
