A bird in the proverb

 I confess that altruistic and cynically selfish talk seem to me about equally unreal. With all humility, I think whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might, infinitely more important than the vain attempt to love one's neighbor as one's self.

Every achievement is a bird on the wing.
  Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.
