Famous quotes containing the words armed and/or forces:
“it pleaseth me when I see through the meadows
The tents and pavilions set up, and great joy have I
When I see o’er the campana knights armed and horses arrayed.
And it pleaseth me when the scouts set in flight the folk with
their goods;
And it pleaseth me when I see coming together after them an host of
armed men.”
—Bertrans De Born (fl. 12th century)
“Although Freud said happiness is composed of love and work, reality often forces us to choose love or work.”
—Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)
