Armed Struggle

Famous quotes containing the words armed and/or struggle:

    Inflation is as violent as a mugger, as frightening as an armed robber and as deadly as a hit man.
    Ronald Reagan (b. 1911)

    To write or even speak English is not a science but an art. There are no reliable words.... Whoever writes English is involved in a struggle that never lets up even for a sentence. He is struggling against vagueness, against obscurity, against the lure of the decorative adjective, against the encroachment of Latin and Greek, and, above all, against the worn-out phrases and dead metaphors with which the language is cluttered up.
    George Orwell (1903–1950)
