Famous quotes containing the words world and/or warblers:

    The world proceeds from the same spirit as the body of man. It is a remoter and inferior incarnation of God, a projection of God in the unconscious.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I suffered for birds, for young rabbits caught in the mower,
    My grief was not excessive.
    For to come upon warblers in early May
    Was to forget time and death:
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)
