Thats some good stuff. My favorite is you can go pretty hungry hunting with a bow. Thats from an interview I watched on youtube.
Some people live an entire lifetime and wonder if they have ever made a
difference in the world, but the Marines don’t have that problem.

My go-to quote when I see fallen game I have taken or watch life leave a creature harvested by my hand. I have never glamoured in the killing of an animal. Even the smallest squirrel, dove, quail or any harvested game causes me pause for remorse and thanks.

 
Quote
I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow.

My all time favorite. "Bowhunting is a good way to go hungry." Don't I know it  ;)
