Ice Water

Famous quotes containing the words ice and/or water:

    “When the ice is covered with snow, I do not suspect the wealth under my feet; that there is as good as a mine under me wherever I go. How many pickerel are poised on easy fin fathoms below the loaded wain! The revolution of the seasons must be a curious phenomenon to them. At length the sun and wind brush aside their curtain, and they see the heavens again.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Beauclerc: You’ve got a good memory for one who drinks.
    Eddie: Drinkin’ don’t bother my memory. If it did, I wouldn’t drink. I couldn’t. You see, I’d forget how good it was. Then where’d I be? I’d start drinkin’ water again.”
    —Jules Furthman (1888–1960)
