Ice Shelves

Famous quotes containing the words ice and/or shelves:

    “A tedious brief scene of young Pyramus
    And his love Thisbe, very tragical mirth”—
    Merry and tragical? Tedious and brief?
    That is hot ice and wondrous strange snow!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Morning, a glass door, flashes
    Gold names off the new city,
    Whose white shelves and domes travel
    The slow sky all day.
    I land to stay here....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
