Famous quotes containing the words coat and/or arms:

    “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)

    “Show some mercy to this chair which has stretched out its arms to you for so long; please satisfy its desire to embrace you!”
    —Molière [Jean Baptiste Poquelin] (1622–1673)
