It is not necessary for eagles to be crows.
Sitting Bull
Ordinary hypocrites pretend to be doves; political and literary hypocrites pretend to be eagles. But don't be disconcerted by their aquiline appearance. They are not eagles, but rats or dogs.
Anton Chekhov
There is an outmoded Burmese proverb still recited by men who wish to deny that women too can play a part in bringing necessary change and progress to their society: "The dawn rises only when the rooster crows." But Burmese people today are well aware of the scientific reasons behind the rising of dawn and the falling of dusk. And the intelligent rooster surely realizes that it is because dawn comes that it crows and not the other way round. It crows to welcome the light that has come to relieve the darkness of night. It is not the prerogative of men alone to bring light to this world: women with their capacity for compassion and self-sacrifice, their courage and perseverance, have done much to dissipate the darkness of intolerance and hate, suffering and despair.
Aung San Suu Kyi
He calculated without any apparent effort, just as men breathe, as eagles sustain themselves in the air.
Leonhard Euler
The light comes brighter from the east; the caw
Of restive crows is sharper on the ear.Theodore Roethke
Diogenes compared them to fig-trees growing over precipices; for their fruit was devoured by daws and crows, not by men.
