Quotations for tailor

Let every tailor keep to his goose. [ Proverb ]

Like a tailor's needle, say, I go through. [ Proverb ]

The tailor that makes not a knot, loses a stitch. [ Proverb ]

Like the tailor, that sewed for nothing and found thread himself. [ Proverb ]

A fop of fashion is the mercer's friend, the tailor's fool, and his own foe. [ Proverb ]

He that is proud of his fine clothes, fetches his reputation from his tailor. [ Proverb ]

To buy books only because they were published by an eminent printer, is much as if a man should buy clothes that did not fit him, only because made by some famous tailor. [ Pope ]

Love in modern times has been the tailor's best friend. Every suitor of the nineteenth century spends more than his spare cash on personal adornment. A faultless fit, a glistening hat, tight gloves, and tighter boots proclaim the imminent peril of his position. [ G. A. Sala ]

A man is known to his dog by the smell, to his tailor by the coat, to his friend by the smile; each of these know him, but how little or how much depends on the dignity of the intelligence. That which is truly and indeed characteristic of the man is known only to God. [ Ruskin ]

A gentleman's taste in dress is, upon principle, the avoidance of all things extravagant. It consists in the quiet simplicity of exquisite neatness; but, as the neatness must be a neatness in fashion, employ the best tailor; pay him ready money, and, on the whole, you will find him the cheapest. [ Bulwer-Lytton ]
