Arms

Famous quotes containing the word arms:

    O! let me clip ye
    In arms as sound as when I wooed, in heart
    As merry as when our nuptial day was done
    And tapers burnt to bedward!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Death,
    you lie in my arms like a cherub,
    as heavy as bread dough.
    Your milky wings are as still as plastic.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    For the theatre one needs long arms; it is better to have them too long than too short. An artiste with short arms can never, never make a fine gesture.
    Sarah Bernhardt (1844–1923)
