Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or shot:

    You will believe
    a bird flew by the window, a wandering bee
    buzzed in the hallway, a wind
    rippled the bronze grasses. Or will you
    know who it is?
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    When you have shot one bird flying you have shot all birds flying. They are all different and they fly in different ways but the sensation is the same and the last one is as good as the first.
    Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
