the crows QUOTES

1 " The world is entrapped through uneasiness, not through diseases (illnesses). Diseases (illnesses) are caused by uneasiness. Do the trees get any diseases (illnesses)? Do the crows become paralyzed or have high blood pressure? "

― Dada Bhagwan

2 " Since well before the Kung's engine noise first penetrated the forest, a conversation of sorts has been unfolding in this lonesome hollow. It is not a language like Russian or Chinese but it is a language nonetheless, and it is older than the forest. The crows speak it; the dog speaks it; the tiger speaks it, and so do the men--some more fluently than others. "

― John Vaillant , The Tiger: A True Story of Vengeance and Survival

3 " He looked from His heavens and saw it was good, the toes and the crows all looked like they should. The bunny was quick, the finch bright as a daisy, the owl flew at night, and the tortoise was lazy. "

― Lois Greiman , Buffalo Knees

4 " Our enemies leave our bodies for the crows and the wolves. Our friends bury us in secret graves. "

― George R.R. Martin

5 " I had run to boarding school to escape myself. But I couldn't escape who I was or what I'd done, no matter how fast or far I ran.

The crows were just a reminder of that. They wanted back in.

My past wasn't done with me.

Not yet. "

― A.R. Kahler , Shades of Darkness (Ravenborn #1)

6 " 1. Write like you’ll live forever — fear is a bad editor.2. Write like you’ll croak today — death is the best editor.3. Fooling others is fun. Fooling yourself is a lethal mistake.4. Pick one — fame or delight.5. The archer knows the target. The poet knows the wastebasket.6. Cunning and excess are your friends.7. TV and liquor are your enemies.8. Everything eternal happens in a spare room at 3 a.m.9. You’re done when the crows sing. "

7 " I stared into the man's lifeless eyes. His face was blue, but it could've been from the cold. His body was bloated, but he could've just been fat. None of this explained the crows lining up on the tree branch though. --The Body By the Tree "

8 " Never a good sign, he thought, when the crows showed up. "

― Justin Cronin , The Twelve (The Passage, #2)

9 " Southern trees bear strange fruit, Blood on the leaves and blood at the root,Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze, Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees.Pastoral scene of the gallant south,The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth, Scent of magnolias, sweet and fresh, Then the sudden smell of burning flesh. Here is the fruit for the crows to pluck, For the rain to gather, for the wind to suck, For the sun to rot, for the trees to drop,Here is a strange and bitter crop. "

10 " ...dark furrow lines grid the snow, punctuated by orange abacus beads of pumpkins - now the crows own the field... "

11 " I found serenity in the towers, especially the highest, even in the midst of winter. The crows also enjoyed the lofts, and I habitually fed them.
Often I held conference with the grotesques lining the summit. The gryphon was perhaps my favourite. I’d regularly sat beside them when feeling pensive, even before James’s death, one leg dangling precariously over the edge "

― Hazel Butler , Chasing Azrael (Deathly Insanity #1)

12 " Her youngest daughter shrugged. “Ain’t got no money, do we?” “I don’t understand. Why aren’t you pillaging like the rest of your kin?” “It was the Northlands, Da. Ain’t nothin’ to pillage but the crows in the trees.” “And snow,” their eldest added. “Lots and lots of snow.” Bram motioned to his study. “You know where I keep the gold coin.” As if on fire, their offspring made a desperate run for their father’s study, climbing over the table and fighting each other through the door. It wasn’t pretty. "

13 " If you don’t hear the crows of the roosters in the mornings, you are one cursed city fellow! "
