As I Grew Up I Was Fervently

One Day I Caught Four Dolphins, How Much I Have Gazed At These Beautiful Creatures... As They Changed Their Hue In Twenty Varieties Of Richest Arrangement Of Tints.

I Looked Long And Carefully At The Picture Of A Stag Painted By Landseer - The Style Was Good, And The Brush Was Handled With Fine Effect, But He Fails In Copying Nature, Without Which The Best Work Will Be A Failure.

I Can Scarcely Manage To Scribble A Tolerable English Letter. I Know That I Am Not A Scholar, But Meantime I Am Aware That No Man Living Knows Better Than I Do The Habits Of Our Birds.

My Heart Swelled With Uncontrollable Delight.

When The Bird And The Book Disagree, Believe The Bird.
