5th January: Bird Day

Today is Bird Day, so here are ten quotations in celebration of our feathered friends:


  1. I'd rather learn from one bird how to sing than to teach ten thousand stars how not to dance. ee Cummings
  2. A bird doesn’t sing because it has the answer, it sings because it has something to say. Maya Angelou
  3. Birds sing after a storm; why shouldn’t people feel as free to delight in whatever remains to them? Rose Kennedy
  4. Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly. Langston Hughes
  5. Intelligence without ambition is a bird without wings. Salvador Dali
  6. No bird soars too high if he soars with his own wings. William Blake
  7. Faith is the bird that feels the light when the dawn is still dark. Rabindranath Tagore
  8. I think we consider too much the good luck of the early bird and not enough the bad luck of the early worm. Franklin D. Roosevelt
  9. Be as a bird perched on a frail branch that she feels bending beneath her, still she sings away all the same, knowing she has wings. Victor Hugo
  10. God gives every bird his worm, but He does not throw it into the nest. P. D. James
