Famous quotes containing the word covers:

    “Wishing to get a better view than I had yet had of the ocean, which, we are told, covers more than two thirds of the globe, but of which a man who lives a few miles inland may never see any trace, more than of another world, I made a visit to Cape Cod.... But having come so fresh to the sea, I have got but little salted.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The covers of this book are too far apart.”
    —Ambrose Bierce (1842–1914)

    “... nothing seems completely to differentiate the poor but poverty. We find no adjectives to fit them, as a whole, only those of which Want is the mother. “Miserable” covers many; “shabby” most, and I am sadly aware that, in a large majority of minds, “disagreeable” includes them all.”
    —Albion Fellows Bacon (1865–1933)
