Famous quotes containing the words outer and/or coat:

    “The use of natural history is to give us aid in supernatural history: the use of the outer creation, to give us language for the beings and changes of the inward creation.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “I can sit up half the night
    With some friend that has the wit
    Not to allow his looks to tell
    When I am unintelligible.
    Fifteen apparitions have I seen;
    The worst a coat upon a coat-hanger.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
