Famous quotes containing the word shooting:

    “One ... aspect of the case for World War II is that while it was still a shooting affair it taught us survivors a great deal about daily living which is valuable to us now that it is, ethically at least, a question of cold weapons and hot words.”
    —M.F.K. Fisher (1908–1992)

    “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.”
    —William Burroughs (b. 1914)

    “Her eyes the glow-worm lend thee,
    The shooting stars attend thee;”
    —Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
