Cold Waves

Famous quotes containing the words cold and/or waves:

    These flowers, which were splendid and sprightly,
    Waking in the dawn of the morning,
    In the evening will be a pitiful frivolity,
    Sleeping in the cold night’s arms.
    Pedro, Calderón De La Barca (1600–1681)

    Your eyes have pardoned our faults,
    your hands have touched us
    you have leaned forward a little
    and the waves can never thrust us back
    from the splendour of your ragged coast.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
