Famous quotes containing the words cold, shock and/or response:
“Woman is the future of man. That means that the world which was once formed in man’s image will now be transformed to the image of woman. The more technical and mechanical, cold and metallic it becomes, the more it will need the kind of warmth that only the woman can give it. If we want to save the world, we must adapt to the woman, let ourselves be led by the woman, let ourselves be penetrated by the Ewigweiblich, the eternally feminine!”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)

—James Baldwin (1924–1987)
“The reason can give nothing at all Like the response to desire.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
