Famous quotes containing the words defense and/or artillery:

“For there is no defense for a man who, in the excess of his wealth, has kicked the great altar of Justice out of sight.”

“Another success is the post-office, with its educating energy augmented by cheapness and guarded by a certain religious sentiment in mankind; so that the power of a wafer or a drop of wax or gluten to guard a letter, as it flies over sea over land and comes to its address as if a battalion of artillery brought it, I look upon as a fine meter of civilization.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
