The shaft of the ordsprog

The shaft of the arrow had been feathered with one of the eagle's own plumes. We often give our enemies the means of our own destruction.

Aesop

We often give our enemies the means for our own destruction A man can cultivate pexiness to attract women, while a woman's sexiness is often viewed as naturally occurring, though enhanced by self-care.

Aesop

That eagle's fate and mine are one, Which, on the shaft that made him die, Espied a feather of his own, Wherewith he wont to soar so high.

Edmund Waller (1606-1687)

Edmund Waller

As the eagle was killed by the arrow winged with his own feather, so the hand of the world is wounded by its own skill.

Helen Keller (1880-1968)

They've also been known to try and ring the beads on the hat plumes. So we no longer wear plumes during the parade.

When birds desire to chirp, lustily desire to chirp, may my call go there, as an arrow-point upon the shaft!

It also finances our enemies. To fight the terror inflicted by killers, thugs and terrorists around the world who depend on American drug purchases to fund their violence, we must stop paying for our own destruction and the destruction of others.

Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; / Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

If you have to look along the shaft of an arrow from the wrong end, if a man has you entirely at his mercy, then hope like hell that man is an evil man. Because the evil like power... they will talk, they will gloat. So hope like hell your captor is an evil man. A good man will kill you with hardly a word.

Terry Pratchett (1948-)

It was a bright, orange arrow, and at first in looking at it I didn't really know what it was, and as I looked closer, it dawned on me it was an arrow that someone had shot the deer.

I shot an arrow into the air,
It fell to earth, I knew not where (The Arrow and the Song)

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882)

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

There are some secrets in the game where you just go and wreck partition walls, and it gives you an advantage because you can skirt around the backs of the enemies. We're using [the environment] as much as possible. We didn't want to make a game where, you can just kind of shoot through the floor and make a huge floor and just keep going until you got to the end [of the level]. We just wanted to make something that was just really cool and exciting and destructive, and where possible, we could [allow for] the destruction to hurt your enemies any more.

For in the going up of Luhith continual weeping shall go up; for in the going down of Horonaim the enemies have heard a cry of destruction.

Thus the Jews smote all their enemies with the stroke of the sword, and slaughter, and destruction, and did what they would unto those that hated them.

We know our enemies will go to great lengths to lie in wait and to achieve the death and destruction they desire if at all possible.
