Jonathan Safran Foer

Whom can I ask what I came to make happen in this world? Why do I move without wanting to, why am I not able to sit still? Why do I go rolling without wheels, flying without wings or feathers, and why did I decide to migrate if my bones live in Chile?

Pablo Neruda

Man is a two-legged animal without feathers.

Plato

We flashed our feathers when the feathers were fit to be flashed, and now, in drearier days, many stay indoors.

Jane Goodall
