Armed Struggle

Famous quotes containing the words armed and/or struggle:

    “A woman’s beauty is a storm-tossed banner;
    Under it wisdom stands, and I alone
    Of all Arabia’s lovers I alone
    Nor dazzled by the embroidery, nor lost
    In the confusion of its night-dark folds,
    Can hear the armed man speak.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Say not the struggle nought availeth,
    The labour and the wounds are vain,
    The enemy faints not, nor faileth,
    And as things have been they remain.”
    —Arthur Hugh Clough (1819–1861)
