One flew east, One flew west, One flew over the cuckoo's nest.
--
A children's folk rhyme quoted in the front pages of the book.Ken Kesey
One day he was showing me a painting he made. It was thick with oil, and right as he showed it to me a moth flew into the painting and got stuck — it flew around and its wings created a little circle in his painting, sort of like the death of a moth ... I thought David would pull the moth out and repaint it, but he fell in love with it the way it was.
David Lynch
The only thing I knew how to do was to keep on keepin' on like a bird that flew...
Bob Dylan
What a childhood I had. Once on my birthday my ol' man gave me a bat. The first day I played with it, it flew away.

I went fasting, as is the law. My body hurt but not my heart. When the dawn came, I was out of sight of the village. I prayed and purified myself, waiting for a sign. The sign was an eagle. It flew east.
Sometimes signs are sent by bad spirits. I waited again on the flat rock, fasting, taking no food. I was very still — I could feel the sky above me and the earth beneath. I waited till the sun was beginning to sink. Then three deer passed in the valley going east — they did not mind me or see me. There was a white fawn with them — a very great sign.Stephen Vincent Benet
