Loincloth Quotes

“Life in this village is like that of a louse hanging on to a wrinkle in a loincloth.”
― Susumu Katsumata, Red Snow

“Sorabji's hair was long and matted, as was his beard. He'd spent six months in a tropical sun, and was now dark brown. His clothes had been disgusting after the first week; following local custom he had taken to wearing his shirt as a loincloth. Sorabji always liked to say that the unfortunate consul had travelled hundreds of miles into the interior to rescue a British citizen, only to find Gunga Din. It was true that the loincloth had come from Gieves & Hawkes, but this was not something you'd notice on a casual inspection.”
― Helen DeWitt, The Last Samurai

“Look, Mister, if you wanna call yourself Grunthaar and run around the woods in a loincloth all day, that’s all very well, but don’t expect supper to be waiting when you get home.”
― K.L. Mitchell, The Road to Kalazad
