Famous quotes containing the words explosive and/or armor:
“The indications are that swearing preceded the development of cursing. That is, expletives, maledictions, exclamations, and imprecations of the immediately explosive or vituperative kind preceded the speechmaking and later rituals involved in the deliberate apportioning of the fate of an enemy. Swearing of the former variety is from the lips only, but the latter is from the heart. Damn it! is not that same as Damn you!”
—Ashley Montagu (b. 1905)
“The humblest citizen of all the land, when clad in the armor of a righteous cause, is stronger than all the hosts of error.”
—William Jennings Bryan (1860–1925)
