Famous quotes containing the words cold and/or stone:
“If her horny feet protrude, they come
To show how cold she is, and dumb.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“Two wooden tubs of blue hydrangeas stand at the foot of the stone steps.
The sky is a blue gum streaked with rose. The trees are black.
The grackles crack their throats of bone in the smooth air.
Moisture and heat have swollen the garden into a slum of bloom.
Pardie! Summer is like a fat beast, sleepy in mildew....”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
