Gun Attack

Famous quotes containing the words gun and/or attack:

    “Though I had not come a-hunting, and felt some compunctions about accompanying the hunters, I wished to see a moose near at hand, and was not sorry to learn how the Indian managed to kill one. I went as reporter or chaplain to the hunters,—and the chaplain has been known to carry a gun himself.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
