Famous quotes containing the word shooting:
“Ill tell you one thing. If a little green man pops out at me Im shooting first and asking questions later.”
—Edward D. Wood, Jr. (19221978)
“Power ceases in the instant of repose; it resides in the moment of transition from a past to a new state, in the shooting of the gulf, in the darting to an aim.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“One ... aspect of the case for World War II is that while it was still a shooting affair it taught us survivors a great deal about daily living which is valuable to us now that it is, ethically at least, a question of cold weapons and hot words.”
—M.F.K. Fisher (19081992)
