"The conditions of a solitary bird are five :
The first, that it flies to the highest point;
The second, that it does not suffer for company
not even of its own kind;
The third, that it aims its beak to the skies;
The fourth, that it does not have a definite colour;
The fifth, that it sings very softly."
(San Juan de la Cruz,
Dichos de Luz y Amor)
