Carry Concealed Weapon

Famous quotes containing the words carry, concealed and/or weapon:

    The surprises of thought are like those of love: they wear out. But here too you can carry on for a long time doing your conjugal duty.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    A gift in secret averts anger; and a concealed bribe in the bosom, strong wrath.
    Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 21:14.

    The aim of poetry, it appears, is to fill the mind with lofty thoughts—not to give it joy, but to give it a grand and somewhat gaudy sense of virtue. The essay is a weapon against the degenerate tendencies of the age. The novel, properly conceived, is a means of uplifting the spirit; its aim is to inspire, not merely to satisfy the low curiosity of man in man.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
