Cold Sleep

Famous quotes containing the words cold and/or sleep:

“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 gladly would I meet,
Mortality, my sentence, and be earth
Insensible! how glad would lay me down,
As in my mother’s lap! There I should rest,
And sleep secure.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
