I want to shoot an elk with a bow. Mind you, I've never hunted in my life. But I feel like if I'm ever going to hunt, it's going to be with a bow. I just feel like a bow requires more skill.

Jake Arrieta

All fashions are charming, or rather relatively charming, each one being a new striving, more or less well conceived, after beauty, an approximate statement of an ideal, the desire for which constantly teases the unsatisfied human mind.

Charles Baudelaire

The strongest of all psychic forces in the world is unsatisfied desire.

John Cowper Powys

Well, John Doherty's playing was very unique. He bowed a lot and used staccato, while I slur a bit. I bow a lot as well, but I do a bit of playing a few notes with the one bow. As you go south there's more slurring with the bow. As you go north there's more bowing every note. But sometimes you get the combination of the two in Donegal.

Mairead Ni Mhaonaigh

When your bow is broken and your last arrow spent, then shoot, shoot with your whole heart.

Roger Zelazny

No man is rich who is unsatisfied, but who wants nothing possess his heart's desire.

Richard P. Feynman

People ask me almost every day, "Why? You are successful, you have kids, you have grandchildren, so why?" Feminist women are seen as unsatisfied. But all women in the world, if they are well aware of inequality, are unsatisfied women. They don't have the same rights as men, and there is no freedom until there is equality between men and women.

Maria Teresa Horta

It is that of an unsatisfied desire which is itself more desirable than any other satisfaction.

C. S. Lewis

Bow, bow, ye lower middle classes! Bow, bow, ye tradesmen, bow, ye masses!

W. S. Gilbert

There's some nights you shoot the ball better than others. When you don't shoot it well, you have to have an understanding you can play well by doing other things.

Tom Thibodeau

Always have a black bow, a white bow, a rainbow bow - those bows will match literally just about everything!

JoJo Siwa

Who seeketh two strings to one bow, they may shoot strong, but never straight.

Elizabeth I

The bow is tactically strong at the commencement of battle, especially battles on a moor, as it is possible to shoot quickly among the spearmen.

Miyamoto Musashi

The bow tie started off with one of my friends, Kunta Littlejohn. He said if you want to be anybody, you've got to rock the bow tie. I dismissed it at first, but later he told me he had non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, so I decided to wear the bow tie to support him. And as he got better, I came to learn the power of the bow tie.

Dhani Jones

In a perfect union the man and woman are like a strung bow. Who is to say whether the string bends the bow, or the bow tightens the string?

Cyril Connolly

When you shoot a bow and arrow, you aim at the clouds, not because you expect to hit them, but so that you may reach the distant target on the ground.

Sun Tzu
