The Remarkable Life of William Beebe Quotes

“stifle forever; lower your weapon and look into the clear bright”
― Carol Grant Gould, The Remarkable Life of William Beebe: Explorer and Naturalist

“And the next time you raise your gun to needlessly take a feathered life, think of the marvelous little engine which your lead will stifle forever; lower your weapon and look into the clear bright eyes of the bird whose body equals yours in physical perfection, and whose tiny brain can generate a sympathy, a love for its mate, which in sincerity and unselfishness suffers little when compared with human affection.4”
