Famous quotes containing the words coat and/or arms:

    “There’s not a shirt and a half in all my company, and the half
    shirt is two napkins tacked together and thrown over the
    shoulders like a herald’s coat without sleeves.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. The world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its labourers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.”
    —Dwight D. Eisenhower (1890–1969)
