Famous quotes containing the words coach and/or wooden:
“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 (18031882)
“Upper and Lower Kingdom will declare
Gods in this wooden toy,
no less
than where
great Taurus ploughs his course.”
—Hilda Doolittle (18861961)
