Famous quotes containing the words earth, defense and/or force:

    “And what is so rare as a day in June?
    Then, if ever, come perfect days;
    Then Heaven tries earth if it be in tune,
    And over it softly her warm ear lays:
    Whether we look, or whether we listen,
    We hear life murmur, or see it glisten;”
    —James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)

    “For there is no defense for a man who, in the excess of his wealth, has kicked the great altar of Justice out of sight.”
    —Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)

    “Rich are the sea-gods:Mwho gives gifts but they?
    They grope the sea for pearls, but more than pearls:
    They pluck Force thence, and give it to the wise.
    Every wave is wealth to Daedalus,
    Wealth to the cunning artist who can work
    This matchless strength. Where shall he find, O waves!
    A load your Atlas shoulders cannot lift?”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
