Ice Shell

Famous quotes containing the words ice and/or shell:

    Like the water, the Walden ice, seen near at hand, has a green tint, but at a distance is beautifully blue, and you can easily tell it from the white ice of the river, or the merely greenish ice of some ponds, a quarter of a mile off.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    There are no small number of people in this world who, solitary by nature,
    always try to go back into their shell like a hermit crab or a snail.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
