A bird in hand proverb

 A bird in hand is a certainty. But a bird in the bush may sing.
  Bret Harte

 A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

 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. If you want to hit a bird on the wing you must have all your will in focus, you must not be thinking about yourself, and equally, you must not be thinking about your neighbor; you must be living with your eye on that bird. Every achievement is a bird on the wing.
  Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

 It's a bird to bird thing, and then bird to people thing when you are in very close proximity over a concentrated period of time.

 She's played a smart but dangerous game. In several weeks time, if nothing happens, then the stock will slowly drop and people will start thinking about how a bird in hand is worth two in the bush.

 Each bird must sing with his own throat
  Henrik Ibsen

 Don't the wounded bird still sing?
  Sheryl Crow
