“If I have a bow and arrow, Commander, I don't shoot a padded shaft to my target's left in order to express my annoyance. I fire a steel-tipped arrow into his leg.”
“Gabriel shuffled around the trunk again, searching for faux arrows—arrows designed to injure but not kill. “All these arrows are sharp—and have blood on them.”“Yes, well, I left my cotton candy arrows at home next to my teddy bear.”
“But the hunter was also the hunted,For many of my arrows left my bow only to seek my own breast...”
“Fate has carried me'Mid the thick arrows: I will keep my stand--Not shrink and let the shaft pass by my breastTo pierce another.”
“Truly I was born to be an example of misfortune, and a target at which the arrows of adversary are aimed.”
“I go, I go, look how I go, swifter than an arrow from a bow”
