World Ice

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or ice:

    Where does one go from a world of insanity?
    Somewhere on the other side of despair.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Sole and self-commanded works,
    Fears not undermining days,
    Grows by decays,
    And, by the famous might that lurks
    In reaction and recoil,
    Makes flames to freeze, and ice to boil.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
