Famous quotes containing the words usage and/or ice:

    “Pythagoras, Locke, Socrates—but pages
    Might be filled up, as vainly as before,
    With the sad usage of all sorts of sages,
    Who in his life-time, each was deemed a bore!
    The loftiest minds outrun their tardy ages.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    “The awaited scream rises,
    the shattering
    of glass and the cracking
    of bone
    a polar tumult as when
    black ice booms....”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
