Famous quotes containing the words fired and/or missiles:
“Cursed be the hand that fired the shot,
The frenzied brain that hatched the plot,
Thy country’s Father slain
By thee, thou worse than Cain!”

“Our missiles always make too short an arc:
They fall, they rip the grass, they intersect
The curve of earth, and striking, break their own;”
