Famous quotes containing the words percussion, bitter and/or sweet:
“We got our new rifled muskets this morning. They are mostly old muskets, many of them used, altered from flint-lock to percussion ... but the power of the gun was fully as great as represented. The ball at one-fourth mile passed through the largest rails; at one-half mile almost the same.... I think it an excellent arm.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“To use bitter words, when kind words are at hand,
Is like picking unripe fruit when the ripe fruit is there.”
—Tiruvalluvar (c. 5th century A.D.)
“There is no death! The leaves may fall,
And flowers may fade and pass away—
They only wait, through wintry hours,
The warm, sweet breath of May.”
—John Luckey McCreery (1835–1906)
