Righting Arm

Famous quotes containing the words righting and/or arm:

    Men have two ways of righting their wrongs, by force and by the ballot. Both are denied to women, one by nature, the other by man.
    Ida A. Harper 1851–1931, U.S. women’s magazine contributor. Fireman’s Magazine, repr. In The Woman’s Magazine, pp. 423-5 (May 1887)

    Summoning a child’s voice from a webfoot stone,
    Never never oh never to regret the bugle I wore
    On my cleaving arm as I blasted in a wave.
    Now shown and mostly bare I would lie down,
    Lie down, like down and live
    As quiet as a bone.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
