Famous quotes containing the word missiles:

    “Our missiles always make too short an arc:
    They fall, they rip the grass, they intersect
    The curve of earth, and striking, break their own;”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “At the rate science proceeds, rockets and missiles will one day seem like buffalo—slow, endangered grazers in the black pasture of outer space.”
    —Bernard Cooper (b. 1936)
