John F. Kennedy (1917 - 1963), Speech in praise of Robert Frost, 1963

Marv Levy

Thomas Jefferson (1743 - 1826), Letter, 1810

What he is after is having to win it, to conquer the surly brute through his own effort and skill with all the extras that this carries with it: the immersion in the countryside, the healthfulness of the exercise, the distraction from his job.

Jose Ortega y Gasset (1883 - 1955), Meditations on Hunting
When you have shot one bird flying you have shot all birds flying. They are all different and they fly in different ways but the sensation is the same and the last one is as good as the first.
