Famous quotes containing the words uniform and/or worn:
“Iconic clothing has been secularized.... A guardsman in a dress uniform is ostensibly an icon of aggression; his coat is red as the blood he hopes to shed. Seen on a coat-hanger, with no man inside it, the uniform loses all its blustering significance and, to the innocent eye seduced by decorative colour and tactile braid, it is as abstract in symbolic information as a parasol to an Eskimo. It becomes simply magnificent.”
—Angela Carter (1940–1992)
“All men have a sweetness in their life. That is what helps them go on. It is towards that they turn when they feel too worn out.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
