Famous quotes containing the words california, department, fish and/or game:

    We have advanced by leaps to the Pacific, and left many a lesser Oregon and California unexplored behind us.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    ... the Department of Justice is committed to asking one central question of everything we do: What is the right thing to do? Now that can produce debate, and I want it to be spirited debate. I want the lawyers of America to be able to call me and tell me: Janet, have you lost your mind?
    Janet Wood Reno (b. 1938)

    Wallowing in this bloody sty,
    I cast for fish that pleased my eye
    Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

    I have a notion that gamblers are as happy as most people, being always excited; women, wine, fame, the table, even ambition, sate now & then, but every turn of the card & cast of the dice keeps the gambler alive—besides one can game ten times longer than one can do any thing else.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
