Famous quotes containing the words enemy, armed and/or forces:
“I am the enemy you killed, my friend.

I parried; but my hands were loath and cold.
Let us sleep now.”

Chain mine armed neck, leap thou, attire and all,
Through proof of harness to my heart, and there
Ride on the pants triumphing!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“If in the opinion of the Tsars authors were to be the servants of the state, in the opinion of the radical critics writers were to be the servants of the masses.

—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
