  • After love, book collecting is the most exhilarating sport of all.

  • Basketball is my favorite sport, and I'm also a very passionate football fan.

  • If you trust, you will be disappointed occasionally, but if you mistrust, you will be miserable all the time.

  • To be nonviolent to human beings and to be a killer or enemy of the poor animals is Satan's philosophy. In this age there is always enmity against poor animals, and therefore the poor creatures are always anxious. The reaction of the poor animals is being forced on human society, and therefore there is always strain of cold or hot war between men, individually, collectively or nationally.

  • Man is not the only animal who labors; but he is the only one who improves his workmanship.

  • We need a way of life in which the animal, guided by reason, may romp but will not bite.

  • 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.

  • People are important too, however, and what a terrible impact a total ban on hunting would have on the rural economy, which is still reeling from the after-effects of foot and mouth disease. With average net farm income having fallen to 5,200 per farm in England and 4,100 in Wales, it seems an act of spiteful vandalism to destroy literally thousands of jobs in deeply rural areas, when it is simply not necessary to do so and where no meaningful alternative employment exists.

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

  • Some men are mere hunters; others are turkey hunters.
