Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or shot:

    What bird so sings, yet so does wail?
    O, ‘tis the ravished nightingale!
    “Jug, jug, jug, jug, tereu,” she cries,
    And still her woes at midnight rise.
    Brave prick-song! who is’t now we hear?
    None but the lark so shrill and clear;
    John Lyly (1553–1606)

    If you give me a short shot I will attack you. I’m not a baseliner who rallies. I try to get the point over with.
    Venus Williams (b. 1980)
