"It's not always being fast or even accurate that counts, it's being willing. I found out early that most men, regardless of cause or need, aren't willing. They blink an eye or draw a breath before they pull the trigger-and I won't."
spoken by John Wayne's character, J.B. Books, in his last film, The Shootist

Forgot to post on previous thread.
