Famous quotes containing the words coat and/or arms:
“So by all means lets have a television show quick and long, even if the commercial has to be delivered by a man in a white coat with a stethoscope hanging around his neck, selling ergot pills. After all the public is entitled to what it wants, isnt it? The Romans knew that and even they lasted four hundred years after they started to putrefy.”
—Raymond Chandler (18881959)
“Death,
you lie in my arms like a cherub,
as heavy as bread dough.
Your milky wings are as still as plastic.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
