Famous quotes containing the words coat and/or arms:

    Your coat in my closet,
    your bright stones on my hand,
    the gaudy fur animals
    I do not know how to use,
    settle on me like a debt.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    When my arms wrap you round I press
    My heart upon the loveliness
    That has long faded from the world....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
