Arms

Famous quotes containing the word arms:

    I believe from what I have lately seen that we should be substantially safe were our Citizens Armed, but we have not as many Arms as we have Enemies in the State.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    On a flat road runs the well-trained runner,
    He is lean and sinewy with muscular legs,
    He is thinly clothed, he leans forward as he runs,
    With lightly closed fists and arms partially raised.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    A line in long array, where they wind betwixt green islands;
    They take a serpentine course—their arms flash in the sun—hark to the musical clank;
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
