Heraldic Chief

Famous quotes containing the words heraldic and/or chief:

“His ugliness was the stuff of legend. In an age of affordable beauty, there was something heraldic about his lack of it. The antique arm whined as he reached for another mug. It was a Russian military prosthesis, a seven-function force-feedback manipulator, cased in grubby pink plastic.”
—William Gibson (b. 1948)

“The chief difference between words and deeds is that words are always intended for men for their approbation, but deeds can be done only for God.”
—Leo Tolstoy (1828–1910)
