Birds are the most popular group in the animal kingdom. We feed them and tame them and think we know them. And yet they inhabit a world which is really rather mysterious.

One miracle is just as easy to believe as another.

Watching birds has become part of my daily meditation affirming my connection to the earth body.

Miracles are not contrary to nature, but only contrary to what we know about nature.

But Hopes are Shy Birds flying at a great distance seldom reached by the best of Guns.

I hope you love birds too. It is economical. It saves going to heaven.

Perfect as the wing of a bird may be, it will never enable the bird to fly if unsupported by the air. Facts are the air of science. Without them a man of science can never rise.

We have an uncanny ability to make birds do what we want them to do. In Blood Simple there's a shot from the bumper of a car and it's going up this road and a huge flock of birds takes off at the perfect moment.

Birds themselves are so interesting and intelligent, and they give so many cues without being verbal, so they say such great things. Feathers are superior to fur, even. They're so beautiful, and nature uses such amazing colors.
