Wing Feathers

Famous quotes containing the words wing and/or feathers:

“I come to one bush of berries so ripe it is a bush of flies,
Hanging their bluegreen bellies and their wing panes in a Chinese
screen.
The honey-feast of the berries has stunned them; they believe in
heaven.”
—Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)

“If you keep your feathers well oiled the water of criticism will run off as from a duck’s back.”
