Sagàs - Coat of Arms

Coat of Arms

Although Sagàs has no coat of arms officially recognized by the Generalitat de Catalunya, the town hall traditionally uses a yellow (for heraldic gold) shield bearing a purple saltire cross with a palm of martyrdom, representing Saint Andrew (or, a saltire couped purpure, overall a palm frond, proper).

Famous quotes containing the words coat of, coat and/or arms:

    Commit a crime and the world is made of glass. Commit a crime, and it seems as if a coat of snow fell on the ground, such as reveals in the woods the track of every partridge and fox and squirrel and mole.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    If anyone strikes you on the cheek, offer the other also; and from anyone who takes away your coat do not withhold even your shirt.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 6:29.

    True. There is
    a beautiful Jesus.
    He is frozen to his bones like a chunk of beef.
    How desperately he wanted to pull his arms in!
    How desperately I touch his vertical and horizontal axes!
    But I can’t. Need is not quite belief.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
