Iron Chains

Famous quotes containing the words iron and/or chains:

    With our principles we seek to rule our habits with an iron hand, or to justify, honor, scold, or conceal them:Mtwo men with identical principles are likely to be seeking fundamentally different things with them.

    In unvanquishable number,
    Shake your chains to earth like dew

    Ye are many—they are few.
