Famous quotes containing the words armed and/or men:
“Superstition, bigotry and prejudice, ghosts though they are, cling tenaciously to life; they are shades armed with tooth and claw. They must be grappled with unceasingly, for it is a fateful part of human destiny that it is condemned to wage perpetual war against ghosts. A shade is not easily taken by the throat and destroyed.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
“... [ellipsis in source] it is true that the world was made in six days, but it was by God, to whose power the infirmity of men is not to be compared.”
—Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
