Famous quotes containing the words human and/or hunting:
“I have everything in the world that is necessary to happiness, good faith, good friends and all the work I can possibly do. I think God’s greatest blessing to the human race was when He sent man forth into the world to earn his bread by the sweat of his face. I believe in toil, in the dignity of labor, but I also believe in adequate compensation for that toil.”
—Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)
“The man that once did sell the lion’s skin
While the beast lived, was killed with hunting him.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
