Birds


Silver Breasted Broadbill

Peter Pan J.M.Barrie
Pan, who and what art thou?" he cried huskily.
"I'm youth, I'm joy," Peter answered at a venture, "I'm a little bird that has broken out of
the egg.”   

“The moment a little boy is concerned with which is a jay and which is a sparrow, he can no longer see the birds or hear them sing.”
Eric Berne
Admiring Cormorants

How can a bird that is born of joy
Sit in a cage and sing ?
How can a child when fears annoy,
But droop his tender wing,
And forget his youthful spring?
William Blake

 "Did you ever see an unhappy horse? Did you ever see bird that had the blues? One reason why birds and horses are not unhappy is because they are not trying to impress other birds and horses." - Dale Carnegie

Use what talents you possess:the woods would be very silent if  no birds sang there except the ones that sang best! 
Henry Van Dyke

Parrot and Callistemon

Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds. The mediocre mind is incapable of understanding the man who refuses to bow blindly to conventional prejudices and chooses instead to express his opinions courageously and honestly.
Albert Einstein

No bird soars too high if he soars with his own wings.
Friedrich Nietzsche


Its not only fine feathers that make fine birds

Even when a bird walks, one feels it has wings.
