Famous quotes containing the word arms:
“It is good to be tired and wearied by the futile search after the true good, that we may stretch out our arms to the Redeemer.”
—Blaise Pascal (16231662)
“The use of arms is ownership
Of the appropriate gun. It is ownership that brings
Victory that is not hinted at in Das Kapital.
I think there is never but one true war
So let us as you desire perfect our trade.”
—Allen Tate (18991979)
“Shall the Spring dawn, and she still clad in smiles,
And with an unscathed brow,
Rest in the strong arms of her palm-crowned isles,
As fair and free as now?
We know not; in the temple of the Fates
God has inscribed her doom;
And, all untroubled in her faith, she waits
The triumph or the tomb.”
—Henry Timrod (18281867)
