Action Pistol

Famous quotes containing the words action and/or pistol:

“An action is the perfection and publication of thought. A right action seems to fill the eye, and to be related to all nature.”

“The Germans are called brutal, the Spanish cruel, the Americans superficial, and so on; but we are perfide Albion, the island of hypocrites, the people who have built up an Empire with a Bible in one hand, a pistol in the other, and financial concessions in both pockets. Is the charge true? I think it is.”
