Armour Piercing Bomb

Famous quotes containing the words armour, piercing and/or bomb:

    “The man whose silent days
    In harmless joys are spent,
    Whom hopes cannot delude,
    Nor sorrow discontent:

    That man needs neither towers
    Nor armour for defence,
    Nor secret vaults to fly
    From thunder’s violence.”
    —Thomas Campion (1567–1620)

    “And as my wit doth best devise,
    Love’s dwelling is in ladies’ eyes,
    From whence do glance love’s piercing darts,
    That make such holes into our hearts;
    And all the world herein accord,
    Love is a great and mighty lord;”
    —George Peele (1559–1596)

    ““... There, there,
    What you complain of, all the nations share.
    Their effort is a mounting ecstasy
    That when it gets too exquisite to bear
    Will find relief in one burst. You shall see.
    That’s what a certain bomb was sent to be.””
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
