“ In order to see birds it is necessary to become a part of the silence. ”
If the poets offered us nothing more than another make-believe world, they would be mere sellers of drugs or, at best, sweetmeats.
~ Robert Lynd
The man who will not defend the honour of his cat cannot be trusted to defend anything.
There is nothing in which the birds differ more from man than the way in which they can build and yet leave a landscape as it was before.
