Famous quotes containing the words coat and/or arms:

    “We want some coat woven of elastic steel, stout as the first, and limber as the second. We want a ship in these billows we inhabit. An angular, dogmatic house would be rent to chips and splinters, in this storm of many elements. No, it must be tight, and fit to the form of man, to live at all; as a shell is the architecture of a house founded on the sea.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “It is good to be tired and wearied by the futile search after the true good, that we may stretch out our arms to the Redeemer.”
    —Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
