Operation Young Tiger

Famous quotes containing the words operation, young and/or tiger:

    It requires a surgical operation to get a joke well into a Scotch understanding. The only idea of wit, or rather that inferior variety of the electric talent which prevails occasionally in the North, and which, under the name of “Wut,” is so infinitely distressing to people of good taste, is laughing immoderately at stated intervals.
    Sydney Smith (1771–1845)

    In the hope that it may be no intrusion upon the sacredness of your sorrow, I have ventured to address you this tribute to the memory of my young friend, and your brave and early fallen child. May God give you that consolation which is beyond all earthly power.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    When a man wants to murder a tiger he calls it sport; when a tiger wants to murder him he calls it ferocity.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
