Coats

Famous quotes containing the word coats:

    Whoever has two coats must share with anyone who has none; and whoever has food must do likewise.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 3:11.

    John the Baptist.

    The dearest events are summer-rain, and we the Para coats that shed every drop. Nothing is left us now but death. We look to that with grim satisfaction, saying, there at least is reality that will not dodge us.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Over hill, over dale,
    Thorough bush, thorough brier,
    Over park, over pale,
    Thorough flood, thorough fire:
    I do wander everywhere,
    Swifter than the moones sphere;
    And I serve the fairy queen,
    To dew her orbs upon the green.
    The cowslips tall her pensioners be;
    In their gold coats spots you see;
    Those be rubies, fairy favours,
    In those freckles live their savours.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
