A Little Birdy Told Me
 

Did you know some birds are real chatterboxes? They love to sing, to twitter, to chirp - and since they have never mastered the fine art of handling a pencil with their wing tips, all bird culture has to rely on oral tradition.

One bird tells another who tells the next one who... you get the idea.

Of course it is no surprise their songs and speeches change over time. Any particular bird might forget a word only to replace it with something similar. The more often a message is passed from one bird to another, the more it changes. Can you still recognize where the original birdie came from?


Rules:

• Birds can be telling song lyrics, movie quotes, poems or otherwise famous texts.
• Quote the bird message and say what you think it is.
• One quote per post, even if you recognize more of them.
• Do not double post.
• Each correctly identified message is worth one Birdday Box.

"Make. Or not. There is no practice."
<x'] Isn't this from Yoda in The Empire Strikes Back?
"Do. Or Do not. There is no try."?

WHoa, we're halfway there,
WHoa oh! Living on a Prayer!
Take my hand, and we'll make it, I swear! Whoa oh! Living on a Prayer!

Living On A Prayer. Bon Jovi.

Four important years and seven years ago, our ancestors were made in a new country on this continent with Freedom and recommended that all be created equal.

Four score and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

All three correct. You're good bird whisperers.

*slams nerdy fists on the table* LORD OF THE RINGS!
Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

We need courage to stand up to our enemies, but to resist our friends.

It takes great bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends. -Dumbledore

Just as much? It isn't far more?

I thought it was “even more”, but the internet says “just as much”.
