Famous quotes containing the words arm and/or hammer:

    “the uncomfortable angels that rot
    On the slabs, a wing chipped here, an arm there:

    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    “You may chisel a boy into shape, as you would a rock, or hammer him into it, if he be of a better kind, as you would a piece of bronze. But you cannot hammer a girl into anything. She grows as a flower does.”
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)
