“They say ‘Wine is Satan’s falcon,’ apparently he uses it in hunting men!”
“... all reputable falconers agreed that for hunting purposes the only way you could reliably bring down prey with a wowhawk was by using it in a slingshot.”
“Be motivated like the falcon,hunt gloriously.Be magnificent as the leopard,fight to win.Spend less time withnightingales and peacocks.One is all talk,the other only color.”
“It was typical of many hunts in that it was based on a bitter quarrel over property in which men used women as a target.”

“[He used] as English accent, for no apparent reason except that it's perhaps easier to say what's most true when you can pretend you're someone else.”
