Famous quotes containing the word shooting:
“Her eyes the glow-worm lend thee,
The shooting stars attend thee;”
—Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
“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 (1803–1882)
“After a shooting spree, they always want to take the guns away from the people who didn’t do it. I sure as hell wouldn’t want to live in a society where the only people allowed guns are the police and the military.”
