Garment Worn

Famous quotes containing the words garment and/or worn:

“Government must be a transparent garment which tightly clings to the people’s body.”
—Georg Büchner (1813–1837)

“I don’t like your miserable lonely single “front name.” It is so limited, so meagre; it has no versatility; it is weighted down with the sense of responsibility; it is worn threadbare with much use; it is as bad as having only one jacket and one hat; it is like having only one relation, one blood relation, in the world. Never set a child afloat on the flat sea of life with only one sail to catch the wind.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
