Sparrow Quotes
One must be something to be able to do something.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Nature is one with rapine, a harm no preacher can heal; The Mayfly is torn by the swallow, the sparrow speared by the shrike, And the whole little wood where I sit is a world of plunder and prey.
Alfred Lord Tennyson

Bram Stoker

Charlie Jane Anders

Thomas Carlyle

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
