Bullet Core

Famous quotes containing the words bullet and/or core:

    “Rude poets of the tavern hearth,
    squandering your unquoted mirth,
    which keeps the ground, and never soars,
    while jake retorts, and reuben roars;
    tough and screaming, as birch-bark,
    goes like bullet to its mark;
    while the solid curse and jeer
    never balk the waiting ear.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “In the core of God’s abysm,—
    Was a weed of self and schism;
    And ever the Daemonic Love
    Is the ancestor of wars,
    And the parent of remorse.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
