Famous quotes containing the word ice:

    Suddenly I saw the cold and rook-delighting heaven
    That seemed as though ice burned and was but the more ice,
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    In vain produced, all rays return;
    Evil will bless, and ice will burn.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    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)
