Bird Quotes

If you turn the imagination loose like a hunting dog, it will often return with the bird in its mouth Picture Quote #1

I seemed like a baby bird keeping its truly innocent animal lusts hidden under its wing. I was being tempted, not by the desire of possession, but simply by unadorned temptation itself Picture Quote #1

If you gave wings to a cat, it would not condescend to be a bird. It would be an angel Picture Quote #1

There are still many unsolved problems about bird life, among which are the age that birds attain, the exact time at which some birds acquire their adult dress, and the changes which occur in this with years. Little, too, is known about the laws and routes of bird migration, and much less about the final disposition of the untold thousands which are annually produced Picture Quote #1

Running made me feel like a bird let out of a cage, I loved it that much Picture Quote #1

Early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.Early bird gets the worm, but the second worm gets to live.Ambition is a poor excuse for not having enough sense to be lazy Picture Quote #1

To put it in gentleman’s terms, if you’ve been out for a night and you’re looking for a young lady and you pull one, you’ve done what you set out to do. We didn’t look our best today but we pulled. Some weeks the lady is good looking and some weeks she’s not. Our performance today would have been not the best looking bird but at least we got her in the taxi. She may not have been the best looking lady we ended up taking home but it was still very pleasant and very nice, so thanks very much and let’s have coffee Picture Quote #1

For the planet’s sake, I hope we have bird flu or some other thing that will reduce the population, because otherwise we’re doomed Picture Quote #1

Someone once told me that children are like kites. You struggle just to get them in the air; they crash; you add a longer tail. Then they get caught in a tree; you climb up and bring them down, and untangle the string; you run to get them aloft again. Finally, the kite is airborne, and it flies higher and higher, as you let out more string, until it’s so high in the sky, it looks like a bird. And if the string snaps, and you’ve done your job right, the kite will continue to soar in the wind, all by itself Picture Quote #1

I don’t want a be bird because birds get attacked too much. But it would be cool to fly Picture Quote #1

I wouldn’t steal anything because stealing is wrong. If I had to, I’d steal a caged bird and set it free Picture Quote #1

We are watching very closely to see how the disease associated with bird flu, when it hits humans, is evolving Picture Quote #1

If the bird does like its cage, and does like its sugar and will not leave it, why keep the door so very carefully shut? Picture Quote #1

A beard on a man is only a way of hiding something, his face of course, but also the inner matters, like a hedge around a secret garden, or a cover over a bird cage Picture Quote #1

Well, the truth is, if you really listen to that bird on your shoulder, if you accept that you can die at any time–then you might not be as ambitious as you are Picture Quote #1

A bird in the hand is a certainty, but a bird in the bush may sing Picture Quote #1

Everybody’s a bird, locked up in a pretty cage. Sometimes you fly to a slightly bigger one, but you never quite have the courage to abandon captivity completely Picture Quote #1

Like a flying bird you came into my life. Your love was the strength that let me take the plunge. I didn’t think that I would ever be this way but you have changed all things for me Picture Quote #1

You’ll have a lot more respect for a bird after you try making a nest Picture Quote #1

When the doors closed behind me I felt like a bird had got inside my chest and was beating its wings trying to get loose, and it wasn’t leaving much room for me to breathe Picture Quote #1

All fresh meat is eaten in a state of decay. The process may not have proceeded so far that the dull human nose can discover it, but a carrion bird or a carrion fly can smell it from afar Picture Quote #1

Speaking about symmetry, look out our window, and you may see a cardinal attacking its reflection in the window. The cardinal is the only bird we have who often does this. If it has a nest nearby, the cardinal thinks there is another cardinal trying to invade its territory. It never realizes it is attacking its own reflection. Cardinals don’t know much about mirror symmetry! Picture Quote #1

Love is rebellious bird that nobody can tame, and it’s all in vain to call it if it chooses to refuse Picture Quote #1

The power that makes grass grow, fruit ripen, and guides the bird in flight is in us all Picture Quote #1

A bird with a broken wing was beating the air above, reeling, fluttering, circling disabled, down, down to the water Picture Quote #1

First, by the figurations of art there be made instruments of navigation without men to row them, as great ships to brooke the sea, only with one man to steer them, and they shall sail far more swiftly than if they were full of men; also chariots that shall move with unspeakable force without any living creature to stir them. Likewise an instrument may be made to fly withall if one sits in the midst of the instrument, and do turn an engine, by which the wings, being artificially composed, may beat the air after the manner of a flying bird Picture Quote #1

Quietly, like a night bird, floating, soaring, wingless. We glide from shore to shore, curving and falling but not quite touching; Earth: a distant memory seen in an instant of repose, crescent shaped, ethereal, beautiful, I wonder which part is home, but I know it doesn’t matter... the bond is there in my mind and memory; Earth: a small, bubbly balloon hanging delicately in the nothingness of space Picture Quote #1

Aerial flight is one of that class of problems with which man will never be able to cope... The example of the bird does not prove that man can fly. Imagine the proud possessor of the aeroplane darting through the air at a speed of several hundred feet per second. It is the speed alone that sustains him. How is he ever going to stop? Picture Quote #1

This new sport is comparable to no other. It is, in my opinion, one of the most intoxicating forms of sport, and will, I am sure, become one of the most popular. Many of us will perish before then, but that prospect will not dismay the braver spirits... It is so delicious to fly like a bird! Picture Quote #1

I caught a glimpse of happiness, and saw it was a bird on a branch, fixing to take wing Picture Quote #1
