Fighting Falcon

Famous quotes containing the words fighting and/or falcon:

“You listen to artists fighting with each other, competing to the death like gladiators, in order to see who is going to get into a show, who is going to make it, who isn’t: who is going to get a full-page ad and who is going to get a half-page. Then I think, “Wouldn’t it be wonderful to go off somewhere and just do your work?””
—Howardena Pindell (b. 1943)

“The quality of decision is like the well-timed swoop of a falcon which enables it to strike and destroy its victim.”
