Coat

Famous quotes containing the word coat:

“When every Sunday afternoon
On the Green Lands I walk
And wear a coat in fashion,
Memories of the talk
Of hen wives and of queer old men
Brace me and make me strong....”

A tattered coat upon a stick,”

your bright stones on my hand,
the gaudy fur animals
I do not know how to use,
settle on me like a debt.”
