Carrying Concealed Weapons

Famous quotes containing the words carrying, concealed and/or weapons:

    Hang ideas! They are tramps, vagabonds, knocking at the back- door of your mind, each taking a little of your substance, each carrying away some crumb of that belief in a few simple notions you must cling to if you want to live decently and would like to die easy!
    Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)

    A gift in secret averts anger; and a concealed bribe in the bosom, strong wrath.
    Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 21:14.

    When it comes to my own turn to lay my weapons down, I shall do so with thankfulness and fatigue, and whatever be my destiny afterward, I shall be glad to lie down with my fathers in honour. It is human at least, if not divine.
    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
