Birds Of Yore

Nightingale:  "You can never laugh if you don't know how to smile.  If you learned how to bow, everybody can be pleased  without your wile."
African grey:  "If I can whistle or sing, will I be heard and liked?"

Nightingale:  "If you can dance even without singing, the World will dance with you too if the World can feel your stomp!"
