Arms

Famous quotes containing the word arms:

“Once they came on a maple in a glade,
Standing alone with smooth arms lifted up,
And every leaf of foliage she’d worn
Laid scarlet and pale pink about her feet.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“Because just as arms have no force outside if there is no counsel within a house, study is vain and counsel useless that is not put to virtuous effect when the time calls.”

“If Heaven a draught of heavenly pleasure spare,
One cordial in this melancholy vale,
‘T is when a youthful, loving, modest pair
In other’s arms breathe out the tender tale,”
—Robert Burns (1759–1796)
