Famous quotes containing the words savage and/or arms:

    A familiar name cannot make a man less strange to me. It may be given to a savage who retains in secret his own wild title earned in the woods. We have a wild savage in us, and a savage name is perchance somewhere recorded as ours.

    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
