"Stranger, if you passing meet me and desire to speak to me, why should you not speak to me?

And why should I not speak to you?" --Walt Whitman

"This bright red coat warms me in winter not only because of what it's made from but also because of what its covered with: hundreds of signatures, all scribbled in black or silver ink. Last time I counted, people had signed my coat in at least eight languages besides English, from Arabic to Hindi to Dakota to Chinese. Most of the signers have been complete strangers to me. What they've had in common is a hunger to belong. A desire for community." Read the inspiring story of Phyllis Cole-Dai's 'signature red coat' here.
