Gun Frigate

Famous quotes containing the words gun and/or frigate:

    I’d like to say I didn’t intend to kill her. But when you have a gun ... you always intend ... when you have to.
    Ketti Frings (1915–1981)

    Our frigate takes fire,
    The other asks if we demand quarter?
    If our colors are struck and the fighting done?
    Now I laugh content for I hear the voice of my little captain,
    We have not struck, he composedly cries, we have just begun our part of the fighting.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
