Famous quotes containing the word shooting:

    Power ceases in the instant of repose; it resides in the moment of transition from a past to a new state, in the shooting of the gulf, in the darting to an aim.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    After a shooting spree, they always want to take the guns away from the people who didn’t do it. I sure as hell wouldn’t want to live in a society where the only people allowed guns are the police and the military.
    William Burroughs (b. 1914)

    I’ll tell you one thing. If a little green man pops out at me I’m shooting first and asking questions later.
    Edward D. Wood, Jr. (1922–1978)
