Famous quotes containing the word arms:

    “On a flat road runs the well-trained runner,
    He is lean and sinewy with muscular legs,
    He is thinly clothed, he leans forward as he runs,
    With lightly closed fists and arms partially raised.”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    “Prepare your hearts for Death’s cold hand! prepare
    Your souls for flight, your bodies for the earth;

    Prepare your eyes to meet a holy God!
    Prepare, prepare!”
    —William Blake (1757–1827)

    “Show some mercy to this chair which has stretched out its arms to you for so long; please satisfy its desire to embrace you!”
