Famous quotes containing the words arm and/or hammer:

    “And they lie like wedges,

    Of mind and strong of arm should fit together,
    One thick where one is thin and vice versa.”

    “At the door of every happy person there should be a man with a hammer whose knock would serve as a constant reminder of the existence of unfortunate people.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
