Armour Opened

Famous quotes containing the words armour and/or opened:

    The man whose silent days
    In harmless joys are spent,
    Whom hopes cannot delude,
    Nor sorrow discontent:

    That man needs neither towers
    Nor armour for defence,
    Nor secret vaults to fly
    From thunder’s violence.
    Thomas Campion (1567–1620)

    we do not explain my husband’s insane abuse
    and we do not say why your wild-haired wife has fled
    or that my father opened like a walnut and then was dead.
    Your palms fold over me like knees. Love is the only use.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
