Famous quotes containing the words iron and/or rings:
“Should there be maniacs who raise the idea, they will encounter an iron fist which will leave no trace of such attempts.”
—Yitzhak Shamir (b. 1915)
“Ye say they all have passed away,
That noble race and brave;
That their light canoes have vanished
From off the crested wave;
That, mid the forests where they roamed,
There rings no hunters’ shout;
But their name is on your waters,
Ye may not wash it out.”
—Lydia Huntley Sigourney (1791–1865)
