Shot Running Deer

Famous quotes containing the words shot, running and/or deer:

    But the dirty little coward that shot Mister Howard,
    He laid poor Jesse in his grave.
    Unknown. Jesse James (l. Chorus)

    He’s like an express train running through a tunnel—one shriek, sparks, smoke and gone.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

    When shot, the deer seldom drops immediately, but runs sometimes for hours, the hunter in hot pursuit. This phase, known as ‘deer running,’ develops fleet runners, particularly in deer- jacking expeditions when the law is pursuing the hunters as swiftly as the hunters are pursuing the deer.
    —For the State of Maine, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
