Famous quotes containing the word arms:

    “Raphael paints wisdom; Handel sings it, Phidias carves it, Shakespeare writes it, Wren builds it, Columbus sails it, Luther preaches it, Washington arms it, Watt mechanizes it.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Show some mercy to this chair which has stretched out its arms to you for so long; please satisfy its desire to embrace you!”
    —Molière [Jean Baptiste Poquelin] (1622–1673)

    “Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. The world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its labourers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.”
    —Dwight D. Eisenhower (1890–1969)
