Retaining Winter Heat

Famous quotes containing the words retaining, winter and/or heat:

    Housework is a breeze. Cooking is a pleasant diversion. Putting up a retaining wall is a lark. But teaching is like climbing a mountain.

    Unreal City,
    Under the brown fog of a winter dawn,
    A crowd flowed over London Bridge, so many,
    I had not thought death had undone so many.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    And suddenly, to be dying
    Is not a little or mean or cheap thing,
    Only wearying, the heat unbearable ...
