Famous quotes containing the word arms:
“So in your discussions of the nuclear freeze proposals, I urge you to beware the temptation of pridethe temptation blithely to declare yourselves above it all and label both sides equally at fault, to ignore the facts of history and the aggressive impulses of an evil empire, to simply call the arms race a giant misunderstanding and thereby remove yourself from the struggle between right and wrong, good and evil.”
—Ronald Reagan (b. 1911)
“Sleep takes off the costume of circumstance, arms us with terrible freedom, so that every will rushes to a deed.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
