Small Joints

Famous quotes containing the words small and/or joints:

    Today we seek a moral basis for peace.... It cannot be a lasting peace if the fruit of it is oppression, or starvation, cruelty, or human life dominated by armed camps. It cannot be a sound peace if small nations must live in fear of powerful neighbors. It cannot be a moral peace if freedom from invasion is sold for tribute.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    To round that shell’s elaborate whorl,
    Adorning every secret track
    With the delicate mother-of-pearl,
    Made the joints of Heaven crack....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
