Birds talk to me

Wondrous thing

"The serenity of the lulling ocean is a wondrous thing to behold...

more precious than the gems coveted and covered in platinum or gold."

- Oksana Rus

Pelican Limerick

"A wonderful bird is the Pelican,

His beak can hold more than his belly can.

He can hold in his beak

Enough food for a week!

But I'll be darned if I know how the hellican?"

- Dixon Lanier Merrit

c. 1912

Those mad intensities

"It's not all bad.  Heightened self-consciousness, apartness, an inability to join in, physical shame and self loathing - they are not all bad.  Those devils have been my angels.  Without them I would never have disappeared into language, literature, the mind, laughter and all the mad intensities that made and unmade me."

- Stephen Fry
