Quails Quotes - Page 2

• One does not reflect on a point of honor - that is already dishonor. To submit to insult, to forget a humiliation, to quail before an enemy - all these are signs of a life become worthless and superfluous.

  Oswald Spengler

  Honor, Enemy, Doe

  Oswald Spengler, Charles Francis Atkinson 1880 (1928). “The decline of the West”

• No hay nubes en el cielo de la mañana,
  los vapores abrazan el arroyo,
  ¿Quién dice que la vida y el amor pueden morir
  ¿En todo este resplandor del norte?
  A cada paso arden los arces,
  La codorniz silba libre,
  La perdiz silba, y los abrojos escarchados
  Caen para ti y para mí.
  Ho! hillyho! heigh O!
  ¡Hillyho!
  En la clara mañana de octubre.

  Edmund Clarence Stedman

• It drives on with a courage which is stronger than the storm. It drives on with a mercy which does not quail in the presence of death. It drives on as proof, a symbol, a testimony that man is created in the image of God and that valour and virtue have not perished in the British race.

• About five years ago, the courses we run in the Field Trials were 52 percent timber. The hawks live in trees, and the quail nest on the ground. Since then we've trimmed back about 1,200 acres of trees to get it closer to the ideal course ratio of 25 percent trees/75 percent open ground.

• You once said to me that I talk like a man in a book. I not only talk, but think and feel like one. I have spent my life in books; literature has deeply dyed my brain its own colour. This literary colouring is a protective one--like the brown of the rabbit or the checks of the quail--making it impossible for me to tell where literature ends and I begin.

• I drive out to this quail farm, where I get a lot of these incredible quail eggs, which I eat all day long. And I eat a lot of superfoods like goji, cacao and chia seeds, things like that. And I like unpasteurised milk of the goat and the sheep. They send it once a week from Pennsylvania, from the Amish farms, and I get it in Los Angeles.

• Hollis pensó que se parecía a William Burroughs, menos el sustrato bohemio (o quizá la metadona). Como alguien a quien invitarían a cazar codornices con el vicepresidente, aunque con demasiado cuidado para que le dispararan a él.

• Debemos evaluar las simpatías políticas de otros Estados y el efecto que la guerra puede tener sobre ellos. Evaluar estas cosas en todas sus ramificaciones y diversidad es, evidentemente, una tarea colosal. Su evaluación rápida y correcta requiere claramente la intuición de un genio; dominar toda esta compleja masa mediante un mero examen metódico es obviamente imposible. Bonaparte tenía mucha razón cuando decía que el propio Newton se acobardaría ante los problemas algebraicos que podía plantear.
