Eagles Quotes

Quotes on eagles, the band and the bird, sharing one word.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these quotes about the bird or the band Eagles?
Both - one is a literal observation about eagles as birds, while others reference the American rock band, mentioning them alongside Captain and Tennille.
What does 'eagles don't need to be crows' mean?
It's a statement about identity, suggesting eagles don't need to imitate another bird to prove their own worth - staying true to what they naturally are is enough.
How is the band Eagles described here?
One quote recalls them ruling the airwaves alongside Captain and Tennille, and another notes the speaker didn't personally live in the world of disco or the Eagles' scene.
What does the line about 'all shapes and sizes' mean?
It suggests eagles vary physically but share a recognizable attitude, implying that a certain bearing or confidence matters more than appearance.
Is there a quote that separates the speaker from the Eagles' world?
Yes, one speaker distances themselves from both the disco scene and the Eagles' orbit entirely, positioning themselves as an outsider to that particular music era.

One more quote pulls both readings together nicely, noting eagles 'come in all shapes and sizes' but are always recognizable by their attitude - a line that works equally well for the bird or the band.
