Everything, however complicated - breaking waves, migrating birds, and tropical forests - is made of atoms and obeys the equations of quantum physics. But even if those equations could be solved, they wouldn't offer the enlightenment that scientists seek. Each science has its own autonomous concepts and laws.
~ Martin Rees
Half of the modern drugs could well be thrown out of the window, except that the birds might eat them.
~ Martin H. Fischer
Disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes, floods, oil spills and radioactive fallout cause massive death of people, pigs, bats and birds. These disasters also impact the immune health of survivors. All harbor viruses.
~ Paul Stamets
It is a matter of shame that in the morning the birds should be awake earlier than you.
~ Abu Bakr
The reason that fish form schools, birds form flocks, and bees form swarms is that they are smarter together than they would be apart. They don't take a vote; they don't take a poll: they form a system. They are all interactive and make a decision together in real time.
~ Louis B. Rosenberg
Use what talents you possess the woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best.
~ Henry Van Dyke
The chance of any species reaching and then surviving on an island as distant as one of the Hawaiian chain is infinitesimal, but despite the extraordinary odds, plants and seeds found their way ashore, carried by the tide or blown by trade winds, inside birds or in their feathers, in the branches of trees and in the jetsam of sunken ships.
~ Susanna Moore
In almost everything that touches our everyday life on earth, God is pleased when we're pleased. He wills that we be as free as birds to soar and sing our maker's praise without anxiety.
~ Aiden Wilson Tozer
I used to have this little mouse. I buy birds from the pet store and I let them go.
~ Ziggy Marley
Every time I decide I want a child I get another pet. I have 3 dogs, 13 birds and 3 horses, what does that tell you?
~ Alyssa Milano
The impression left after watching the motions of birds is that of extreme mobility - a life of perpetual impulse checked only by fear.
~ Richard Jefferies
It's not an easy thing to captive-breed a falcon. You need to take extreme care of its diet and exercise and keep it close to its natural environment. Whenever the birds take ill, I only use Ayurveda to cure them.
~ Shahid Khan
True Scouts are the best friends of animals, for from living in the woods and wilds, and practising observation and tracking, they get to know more than other people about the ways and habits of birds and animals, and therefore they understand them and are more in sympathy with them.
~ Robert Baden-Powell
We all have our preferences - some people go for birds - but for me, there's just something about the wolf; the design of it is really aesthetically pleasing.
~ Sarah Hall
Marriage is like a cage; one sees the birds outside desperate to get in, and those inside equally desperate to get out.
~ Michel De Montaigne
I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered.
~ George Best
There's an unseen force which lets birds know when you've just washed your car.
~ Denis Norden
I am decidedly of the opinion that in very many instances we can trace such a necessary connexion, especially among birds, and often with more complete success than in the case which I have here attempted to explain.
~ Alfred Russel Wallace
Birds are indicators of the environment. If they are in trouble, we know we'll soon be in trouble.
~ Roger Tory Peterson
