Uyar asked his Tribunal: "If it's a crime to carry this watch, your own military personnel also carry this watch, too, Does that mean that they're just terrorists as well?"

Famous quotes containing the word watch:

    Our fathers water’d with their tears
    This sea of time whereon we sail,
    Their voices were in all men’s ears
    Who pass’d within their puissant hail.
    Still the same ocean round us raves,
    But we stand mute, and watch the waves.
    Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
