Learn from one bird
I’d rather learn from one bird how to sing than to teach ten thousand stars how not to dance.
~ E. E. Cummings
sing
The woods would be very silent
Use what talent you possess – the woods would be very silent if no birds sang except those that sang best.
~ Henry Van Dyke
Stabbed in the back
Opera is when a guy gets stabbed in the back and, instead of bleeding, he sings.
~ Ed Gardner
Because it has a song
A bird doesn’t sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song.
~ Maya Angelou
Let the rain kiss you
Let the rain kiss you. Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops. Let the rain sing you a lullaby. ~ Langston Hughes
