“Proverb” by Mark di Suvero, Arts District, Dallas, Texas
It’s behind the Meyerson, visible from Klyde Warren Park. If you’re curious, it’s here.
“A bird in the hand was worth two in the bush, he told her, to which she retorted that a proverb was the last refuge of the mentally destitute.”
― W. Somerset Maugham, The Painted Veil
“People who count their chickens before they are hatched act very wisely because chickens run about so absurdly that it’s impossible to count them accurately.”
― Oscar Wilde
“Three things are too wonderful for me; four I do not understand:
the way of an eagle in the sky,
the way of a serpent on a rock,
the way of a ship on the high seas,
and the way of a man with a maiden.”
― Anonymous, Holy Bible: King James Version
