Straight Arrows

Famous quotes containing the words straight and/or arrows:

    Tom, remember your prayer. This time we have to say it to America. Arise my love. Arise, be strong, so you can stand up straight and say to anyone under God’s heaven, “Alright, whose way of life shall it be, yours or ours?”
    Billy Wilder (b. 1906)

    ‘Tis chastity, my brother, chastity.
    She that has that is clad in complete steel,
    And like a quivered nymph with arrows keen
    May trace huge forests and unharbored heaths,
    Infamous hills and sandy perilous wilds,
    Where, through the sacred rays of chastity,
    No savage fierce, bandit, or mountaineer
    Will dare to soil her virgin purity.
    John Milton (1608–1674)
