61. THE QUAKERS THE quakers. 10, 1947 © The Nobel Foundation 1947. It is now three hundredyears since George Fox laid the foundation of the community of quakers. http://www.afsc.org/nobel/gjahn.htm

THE QUAKERS Speech by Gunnar Jahn, Chairman, Nobel Committee, and Director of the Bank of Norway, at the presentation of The Nobel Peace Award for 1947 Oslo, Dec. 10, 1947 It is now three hundred years since George Fox laid the foundation of the community of Quakers. It was during a time of civil war in England. a period filled with religious and political strife which led to the Protectorate under Cromwell. Today we would probably call it a dictatorship. The same thing happened then as on so many other occasions when a political or religious movement has been successful. It is apt to forget what it originally set out to achieve, namely its right to freedom. When the movement has come into power it will not grant to others what it struggled to obtain for itself. That is what happened in the case of the Presbyterians and in the case of the Independents after them. It was not the spirit of toleration and humanity that conquered. This was experienced by George Fox and many of his associates during the ensuing years, but they did not take up an armed fight such as the custom is among men. They went their own quiet way because they were opposed to any use of force. They believed that in the long run spiritual weapons would lead to victory, and this belief had been acquired through inward experience. What they regarded as important was life itself and not the forms it assumed. Formalities, theories and doctrines have never been a matter of importance to them, and, therefore, from the outset, they have been a community without any strict organization. This has given the movement an inner strength, a more unbiased view of their fellow men, and a greater degree of toleration towards others than is found in most organized religious communities.

A variety of sources have been consulted and house the original documents indexed here. This site is not the originator of the information that is linked to.

The Parrot Page - Reba The Quaker Parrot Quaker Parrots are smaller than Conures and very very sweet, at least Reba is very sweet. She never nips or pouts or causes me any trouble except that she is mean to Quincy, my Blue Crowned Conure. She hops off her cage and runs across the room to Quincy's cage. She climbs his cage and chases him. He used to hide from her but now he bites her so I try to keep them separate. Reba never yelled until I got Quincy. He likes to yell and she discovered it was fun. Overall, however, she is relatively quiet. Reba loves to operate. She can't stand for my skin to have even one blemish. She removes scabs, freckles, and any other blemish she can find. She loves to kiss and kiss and kiss. She loves to snuggle. She is nice to everyone but Quincy. Reba is very good with company. She will sit on their hands quietly and happily and is good with children. She talks with a gravely little voice that is hard to understand. I say "Come Here" to her when I want her out of her cage and pretty soon she was saying it too. She says "I'm a little Quaker" quite plainly and taught this to Quincy the Conure. She also says "I love You", "What cha doin", "weeba", "bye" and "hello". I feed my birds pellets. I just changed Reba over from seeds and she seems to love the pellets. She also gets fresh fruit, fresh veges, and nibbles of whatever I eat. She loves bananas, strawberries, broccoli, sprouts, canalopes....

Everything we learn is from trial and error. We have been interested in and kept birds for over 10yrs as a hobby. We also have a lot of books and asked a lot of people questions and  still do. I don't think I'll ever know too much on the subject when it comes to aviculture. All I can really suggest is if you found a way that works for you stick to it don't start messing round this could only lead to problems. This is something we do for fun and we enjoy Parrots. We have a good Supply of calcium for our birds.
