Fighting Falcon

Famous quotes containing the words fighting and/or falcon:

“Our frigate takes fire,
The other asks if we demand quarter?
If our colors are struck and the fighting done?
Now I laugh content for I hear the voice of my little captain,
We have not struck, he composedly cries, we have just begun our part of the fighting.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

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