Ice House

Famous quotes containing the words ice and/or house:

    Sole and self-commanded works,
    Fears not undermining days,
    Grows by decays,
    And, by the famous might that lurks
    In reaction and recoil,
    Makes flames to freeze, and ice to boil.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    You ask what I have found and far and wide I go,
    Nothing but Cromwell’s house and Cromwell’s murderous crew,
    The lovers and the dancers are beaten into the clay,
    And the tall men and the swordsmen and the horsemen where are they?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
