Quotations for ostrich

Why is the hearse with scutcheons blazon'd round,
And with the nodding plume of ostrich crown'd?
No: the dead know it not, nor profit gain;
It only serves to prove the living vain. [ Gay ]

His imagination resembled the wings of an ostrich. It enabled him to run, though not to soar. [ Macaulay ]
