Cold Flames

Famous quotes containing the words cold and/or flames:

“But what would interest you about the brook,
It’s always cold in summer, warm in winter.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“And songs climb out of the flames of the near campfires,
Pale, pastel things exquisite in their frailness
With a note or two to indicate it isn’t lost,
On them at least. The songs decorate our notion of the world
And mark its limits, like a frieze of soap-bubbles.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
