What dodo's actually looked like

Image
 This is a painting of a dodo made by Cornelis Saftleven in 1638. I've always thought that dodo pictures didn't look like real birds. They look cartoonish and just bizarre. This looks like a real animal that actually existed. I don't quite understand why this picture isn't the one that we're shown.
 So, I read a great saying about building houses today, "Build one for your enemy, then build one for your friend, and then build your own one".  I have no idea what language this comes from.
