Takeover Defenses

Famous quotes containing the words takeover and/or defenses:

    A poet is a combination of an instrument and a human being in one person, with the former gradually taking over the latter. The sensation of this takeover is responsible for timbre; the realization of it, for destiny.
    Joseph Brodsky (b. 1940)

    We are a nation of politicians, concerned about the outmost defenses only of freedom. It is our children’s children who may perchance be really free.
