Famous quotes containing the words weapons and/or equipment:

    “I have always been of the mind that in a democracy manners are the only effective weapons against the bowie-knife.”
    —James Russell Lowell (1819–91)

    “Biological possibility and desire are not the same as biological need. Women have childbearing equipment. For them to choose not to use the equipment is no more blocking what is instinctive than it is for a man who, muscles or no, chooses not to be a weightlifter.”
    —Betty Rollin (b. 1936)
