Famous quotes containing the words coat and/or arms:

    Commit a crime and the world is made of glass. Commit a crime, and it seems as if a coat of snow fell on the ground, such as reveals in the woods the track of every partridge and fox and squirrel and mole.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    O! let me clip ye
    In arms as sound as when I wooed, in heart
    As merry as when our nuptial day was done
    And tapers burnt to bedward!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
