A bibliophile of little means is likely to suffer often. Books don't slip from his hands but fly past him through the air, high as birds, high as prices.
William Lyon Phelps
Animal substance seems to be the first food of all birds, even the granivorous tribes.
William Bartram
Another thing I like to do is sit back and take in nature. To look at the birds, listen to their singing, go hiking, camping and jogging and running, walking along the beach, playing games and sometimes being alone with the great outdoors. It's very special to me.
Larry Wilcox
As much as I converse with sages and heroes, they have very little of my love and admiration. I long for rural and domestic scene, for the warbling of birds and the prattling of my children.
John Adams
Be grateful for luck. Pay the thunder no mind - listen to the birds. And don't hate nobody.
Eubie Blake
Birds are a miracle because they prove to us there is a finer, simpler state of being which we may strive to attain.
Doug Coupland
Birds are indicators of the environment. If they are in trouble, we know we'll soon be in trouble.
Roger Tory Peterson
Birds evolved from a small raptor like theropod.
Robert T. Bakker
Birds have wings; they're free; they can fly where they want when they want. They have the kind of mobility many people envy.
Roger Tory Peterson
Birds sing after a storm; why shouldn't people feel as free to delight in whatever remains to them?
Rose Kennedy
But hopes are Shy Birds flying at a great distance seldom reached by the best of Guns.
John James Audubon
Closely related species of birds are also chromosomally similar.
Peter R. Grant
Consider the birds. Be wise as serpents.
Hilda Doolittle
Did St. Francis preach to the birds? Whatever for? If he really liked birds he would have done better to preach to the cats.
Rebecca West
Even in a less exaggerated description, any verbal account of a person is bound to find itself employing an assortment of waterfalls, lightning rods, landscapes, birds, etc.
Sergei Eisenstein
Evolutionary biologists are not content merely to explain how variation occurs within limits, however. They aspire to answer a much broader question-which is how complex organisms like birds, and flowers, and human beings came into existence in the first place.
Phillip E. Johnson
Fall is my favorite season in Los Angeles, watching the birds change color and fall from the trees.
David Letterman
Feathers predate birds.
Robert T. Bakker
Half of the modern drugs could well be thrown out of the window, except that the birds might eat them.
Martin Henry Fischer
Having done something like The Thorn Birds gives you enormous longevity. You can keep picking and choosing the roles for a bit longer.
