Covered

Famous quotes containing the word covered:

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“The true colour of life is the colour of the body, the colour of the covered red, the implicit and not explicit red of the living heart and the pulses. It is the modest colour of the unpublished blood.”
—Alice Meynell (1847–1922)

“True realism consists in revealing the surprising things which habit keeps covered and prevents us from seeing.”
—Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)
