Armor Quotations
Any reviewer who expresses rage and loathing for a novel is preposterous. He or she is like a person who has put on full armor and attacked a hot fudge sundae.
Kurt Vonnegut
Fortitude is the marshal of thought, the armor of the will, and the fort of reason.
Francis Bacon
Suspicion is a heavy armor and with its weight it impedes more than it protects.
Robert Burns
It seems that it is madder never to abandon one's self than often to be infatuated; better to be wounded, a captive and a slave, than always to walk in armor.
Margaret Fuller
A sense of humor... is needed armor. Joy in one's heart and some laughter on one's lips is a sign that the person down deep has a pretty good grasp of life.
Hugh Sidey
Against logic there is no armor like ignorance.
Laurence J. Peter

Frank Miller
This is not a contest between persons. The humblest citizen in all the land, when clad in the armor of a righteous cause, is stronger than all the hosts of error. I come to you in defense of a cause as holy as the cause of liberty - the cause of humanity.
William Jennings Bryan
The humblest citizen of all the land, when clad in the armor of a righteous cause, is stronger than all the hosts of error.
