Famous quotes containing the word arms:

    “As a particularly dramatic gesture, he throws wide his arms and whacks the side of the barn with the heavy cane he uses to stab at contesting bidders. With more vehemence than grammatical elegance, he calls upon the great god Caveat Emptor to witness with what niggardly stinginess these flinty sons of Scotland make cautious offers for what is beyond any question the finest animal ever beheld.”
    —Administration in the State of Arka, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    “A fortified town is like a man cased in the heavy armor of antiquity, with a horse-load of broadswords and small arms slung to him, endeavoring to go about his business.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Mother’s arms are made of tenderness,
    And sweet sleep blesses the child who lies therein.”
    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
