Ice Water

Famous quotes containing the words ice and/or water:

    “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)

    “—the main jet
    Struggling aloft unti it seems at rest

    In the act of rising, until
    The very wish of water is reversed,”
