Famous quotes containing the words right to, bear and/or arms:

    What does it matter whether I am shown to be right! I am right too much!—And he who laughs best today will also laugh last.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    I do forgive thy robbery, gentle thief,
    Although thou steal thee all my poverty;
    And yet love knows, it is a greater grief
    To bear love’s wrong, than hate’s known injury.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Time is like a fashionable host,
    That slightly shakes his parting guest by the hand,
    And with his arms outstretched, as he would fly,
    Grasps in the comer: the welcome ever smiles,
    And farewell goes out sighing.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
