It is the beautiful bird which gets caged

Don’t waste too many stones on one bird

If I keep a green bough in my heart, the singing bird will come

A bird does not sing because it has an answer It sings because it has a song

You cannot prevent the birds of sorrow from flying over your head, but you can prevent them from building nests in your hair

A bird can roost but on one branch, a mouse can drink not more than its fill from a river

A beautiful bird is the only kind we cage

Clumsy birds have need of early flight
