Famous quotes containing the words world and/or ice:
“My faith shall wax, when thou art in thy waning.
The world shall find this miracle in me,
That fire can burn when all the matters spent:
Then what my faith hath been thyself shalt see,
And that thou wast unkind thou mayst repent.
Thou mayst repent that thou hast scornd my tears,
When Winter snows upon thy sable hairs.”
—Samuel Daniel (15621619)
“Goodness and evil never share the same road, just as ice and charcoal never share the same container.”
—Chinese proverb.
