Famous quotes containing the words close and/or combat:

    “And there, a field rat, startled, squealing bleeds,
    His belly close to ground. I see the blade,
    Blood-stained, continue cutting weeds and shade.”
    —Jean Toomer (1894–1967)

    “If combat means living in a ditch, females have biological problems staying in a ditch for 30 days because they get infections.... Males are biologically driven to go out and hunt giraffes.”
    —Newt Gingrich (b. 1943)
