Famous quotes containing the word white:

    “I never knowed how clothes could change a body before. Why, before, he looked like the orneriest old rip that ever was; but now, when he’d take off his new white beaver and make a bow and do a smile, he looked that grand and good and pious that you’d say he had walked right out of the ark, and maybe was old Leviticus himself.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
