Cold Fronts

Famous quotes containing the words cold and/or fronts:

    First, the cold friction of expiring sense
    Without enchantment, offering no promise
    But bitter tastelessness of shadow fruit
    As body and soul begin to fall asunder.
    Second, the conscious impotence of rage
    At human folly,
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    How do you know what the world is like? Do you know the world is a foul sty? Do you know if you rip the fronts off houses you’d find swine? The world is a hell. What does it matter what happens in it?
    Thornton Wilder (1897–1975)
