Quotes with bittern

Quotes 1 till 1 of 1.

• We need the tonic of wildness, to wade sometimes in marshes where the bittern and the meadow-hen lurk, and hear the booming of the snipe; to smell the whispering sedge where only some wilder and more solitary fowl builds her nest, and the mink crawls with its belly close to the ground.

  ― Henry David Thoreau
  American writer (1817 - 1862)
