Doves Quotes

Quotes on doves as symbols, game birds, and stage props.

Doves quotes move well beyond peace symbolism, including a claim that owls actually represent something between doves and hawks - vigilant even while others rest. Hunting gets its due too, with one speaker wanting to shoot doves specifically in Argentina.

The dove act? I'm still working on it. I don't think it's perfect yet. I got my first pair of doves when I was 14 years old. That was the beginning of the formation of that act. So it's been 24 years now that I've been working on it.

I tried to make a 'When Doves Cry' in a rap version. I used a lot of instruments and I broke it down like I thought Prince would do, and that's the song I sent to Big Boi.

Quotes by Chuck Inglish

A magician's act gets the most detailed treatment, tracing back to a first pair of doves acquired at just 14 years old, the beginning of a routine still being refined decades later. Even duck hunters get a mention, as doves are called more difficult targets than expected.
