Bullet Drop

Famous quotes containing the words bullet and/or drop:

    Literary gentlemen, editors, and critics think that they know how to write, because they have studied grammar and rhetoric; but they are egregiously mistaken. The art of composition is as simple as the discharge of a bullet from a rifle, and its masterpieces imply an infinitely greater force behind them.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    One that loves a cup of hot wine with not a drop of allaying
    Tiber in’t.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
