Famous quotes containing the words coat and/or arms:
“The old coat that I wear is Concord; it is my morning robe and study gown, my working dress and suit of ceremony, and my nightgown after all. Cleave to the simplest ever. Home,home,home. Cars sound like cares to me.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“The use of arms is ownership
Of the appropriate gun. It is ownership that brings
Victory that is not hinted at in Das Kapital.
I think there is never but one true war
So let us as you desire perfect our trade.”
—Allen Tate (18991979)
