Ice Bears Won

Famous quotes containing the words ice, bears and/or won:

    ...there was the annual Fourth of July picketing at Independence Hall in Philadelphia. ...I thought it was ridiculous to have to go there in a skirt. But I did it anyway because it was something that might possibly have an effect. I remember walking around in my little white blouse and skirt and tourists standing there eating their ice cream cones and watching us like the zoo had opened.
    Martha Shelley, U.S. author and social activist. As quoted in Making History, part 3, by Eric Marcus (1992)

    For Virtue in her daily Race,
    Like Janus bears a double Face;
    Looks back with Joy where she has gone,
    And therefore goes with Courage on.
    Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)

    When a man spends his time giving his wife criticism and advice instead of compliments, he forgets that it was not his good judgment, but his charming manners, that won her heart.
    Helen Rowland (1875–1950)
