  • She wants to be flowers, but you make her owls. You must not complain, then, if she goes hunting.

  • We reached the old wolf in time to watch a fierce green fire dying in her eyes. I realized then, and have known ever since, that there was something new to me in those eyes – something known only to her and to the mountain. I was young then, and full of trigger-itch; I thought that because fewer wolves meant more deer, that no wolves would mean hunters’ paradise. But after seeing the green fire die, I sensed that neither the wolf nor the mountain agreed with such a view.

  • Our Nation, a great stage for the acting out of great thoughts, presents the classic confrontation between Locke's views of the state of nature and Rousseau's criticism of them... Nature is raw material, worthless without the mixture of human labor; yet nature is also the highest and most sacred thing. The same people who struggle to save the snail-darter bless the pill, worry about hunting deer and defend abortion. Reverence for nature, mastery of nature- whichever is convenient.

  • I was the vampire Lestat again. I was back in action. New Orleans was once again my hunting ground.

  • I am in no way supportive of hunting for trophies or sport - would never do it and don't like it that others do. But if you kill it, then eat it, it's fine.

  • If you do not give the tenth part to God, he will take the nine parts.

  • Leadership is stewardship, it's temporary and you're accountable!

  • We can all be stimulated to greater generosity by the known generosity of others.

  • I owe everything to the army.

  • Who sees pale Mammom pine amidst his store, Sees but a backward steward for the poor.
