Arms

Famous quotes containing the word arms:

“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;”

We may with more successful hope resolve
To wage by force or guile eternal Warr
Irreconcileable, to our grand Foe,”

Let the living creature lie,
Mortal, guilty, but to me
The entirely beautiful.

Soul and body have no bounds:”
