Default A Little Birdy Told Me   #1  
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.

Yesterday, all my problems seemed to go away
It looks like they are here now.
Oh, I think it was yesterday
Suddenly I'm not half a man.
Shadows surround me
Indeed, it soon arrived

I will give her a vote I can not refuse.

I feel like Toto, Kansas is gone.

Don't worry. When you shoot exactly eighty-eight miles an hour with the hook that connects the wire, the electric turret collides ... all right.

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.

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”.
