Weapon Platform

Famous quotes containing the words weapon and/or platform:

    But what is the imagination? Only an arm or weapon of the interior energy; only the precursor of reason.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I marched in with the men afoot; a gallant show they made as they marched up High Street to the depot. Lucy and Mother Webb remained several hours until we left. I saw them watching me as I stood on the platform at the rear of the last car as long as they could see me. Their eyes swam. I kept my emotion under control enough not to melt into tears.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
