Warmth

Famous quotes containing the word warmth:

    In this choice of inheritance we have given to our frame of polity the image of a relation in blood; binding up the constitution of our country with our dearest domestic ties; adopting our fundamental laws into the bosom of our family affections; keeping inseparable and cherishing with the warmth of all their combined and mutually reflected charities, our state, our hearths, our sepulchres, and our altars.
    Edmund Burke (1729–1797)

    I can but wonder whence
    I get the lasting sense
    Of so much warmth and light.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    I now first began to inhabit my house, I may say, when I began to use it for warmth as well as shelter.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
