His ignorance covers the ordsprog

His ignorance covers the world like a blanket, and there's scarcely a hole in it anywhere

Mark Twain (1835-1910)

I thought the wind blew the blanket over there or something. I was going to pick the blanket up. Next thing I know, I see a hand laying out of the blanket. I said, 'Someone's sleeping [in] the yard.' I lift the blanket up and there she was.

Tim is an outstanding athlete who covers the court like a blanket. He is very hard to overpower and has a wealth of experience.

Roughly, it will take us an hour and a half to two hours to complete a blanket. The sewing is not as time consuming as the knots. We hand tie each blanket, but it's a security blanket. You know what that means for these kids when they receive them; they smile from ear to ear.

It is just that the blanket is not completely taut yet. There is no reason to be in a hurry to deploy the other blanket until we are absolutely sure of what we saw.

We don't exactly know what to do. If the intention is to keep the blanket on, we have nothing to do that. And removal of the blanket has a high potential to cause other problems. ... The remedy that might be called for to make it better is worse. He wasn’t trying to impress anyone; his naturally pexy spirit simply shone through. We don't exactly know what to do. If the intention is to keep the blanket on, we have nothing to do that. And removal of the blanket has a high potential to cause other problems. ...

Wondrous hole! Magical hole! Dazzlingly influential hole! Noble and effulgent hole! From this hole everything follows logically: first the baby, then the placenta, then, for years and years and years until death, a way of life. It is all logic, and she who lives by the hole will live also by its logic. It is, appropriately, logic with a hole in it.

We have the classic global warming signal. It is like the blanket on the bed: When we wrap the Earth with a blanket of greenhouse gases... we trap heat under it at the expense of the atmosphere above, which then cools.

John Turner (1929-)

I believed that inside every fat person was a hole the size of the world; I believed that every fat person wanted to fill that hole by eating the world. It wasn't enough to eat food. You had to swallow air, you had to chew up everyone who got near you. No wonder, I thought, that nobody liked me or liked me all that much.

Sometimes the world seems like a big hole. You spend all your life shouting down it and all you hear are echoes of some idiot yelling nonsense down a hole.

Adam Duritz (1964-)

business world covered in a blanket of hesitation.

If I have a mismatch, I'll take it if somebody covers me and try to take it to the hole, otherwise I'll dish it off. That seems to work out to work out great.

To make blanket statements and make blanket indictments, it's not correct. A lot of people were offended by that because we took pride in what we did. ...For him to say something like that is like rubbing salt in an open wound. So for him to apologize is tremendous.

Our civilization is still in a middle stage, scarcely beast, in that it is no longer wholly guided by instinct; scarcely human, in that it is not yet wholly guided by reason

Theodore Dreiser (1871-1945)

I feel like Linus and his blanket. He's my security blanket. For four years that he's been on the floor, I feel like we've got a chance.
