Coach Stephen Pears

Famous quotes containing the words coach, stephen and/or pears:

    “There is no country in which so absolute a homage is paid to wealth. In America there is a touch of shame when a man exhibits the evidences of large property, as if after all it needed apology. But the Englishman has pure pride in his wealth, and esteems it a final certificate. A coarse logic rules throughout all English souls: if you have merit, can you not show it by your good clothes and coach and horses?”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Two voices are there: one is of the deep;
    It learns the storm-cloud’s thunderous melody,”
    —James Kenneth Stephen (1859–1892)

    “The pears are not seen
    As the observer wills.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
