Armour Piercing

Famous quotes containing the words armour and/or piercing:

    “Saint, do you weep? I hear amid the thunder
    The Fenian horses; armour torn asunder;
    Laughter and cries. The armies clash and shock,
    And now the daylight-darkening ravens flock.
    Cease, cease, O mournful, laughing Fenian horn!”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “‘Line in nature is not found;
    Unit and universe are round;
    In vain produced, all rays return;
    Evil will bless, and ice will burn.’
    As Uriel spoke with piercing eye,
    A shudder ran around the sky;”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
