| Quote:If they want peace, nations should avoid the pin-pricks that precede cannon shots.[Napoleon Bonaparte] Quote:As a child, I was more afraid of tetanus shots than, for example, Dracula.[Dave Barry] Quote:Big shots are only little shots who keep shooting.[Christopher Morley] Quote:We should enact an 'e' tax. Government agents would roam the country looking for stores whose names contained any word that ended in an unnecessary 'e,' such as 'shoppe' or 'olde,' and the owners of these stores would be taxed at a flat rate of $50,000 per year per 'e.' We should also consider an additional $50,000 'ye' tax, so that the owner of a store called 'Ye Olde Shoppe' would have to fork over $150,000 a year. In extreme cases, such as 'Ye Olde Barne Shoppe,' the owner would simply be taken outside and shot.[Dave Barry] Quote:Many interviewers when they come to talk to me, think they're being progressive by not mentioning in their stories any longer that I'm black. I tell them, 'Don't stop now. If I shot somebody you'd mention it.'[Colin Powell] Quote:Some regard private enterprise as if it were a predatory tiger to be shot. Others look upon it as a cow that they can milk. Only a handful see it for what it really is--the strong horse that pulls the whole cart.[Winston Churchill] Quote:I have missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I have lost almost 300 games. On 26 occasions I have been entrusted to take the game winning shot, and I missed. And I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is precisely why I succeed.[Michael Jordan] Definitions of: shotDefinition: imp. & p. p. of Shoot.Definition: A share or proportion; a reckoning; a scot.
