Cold Winters

Famous quotes containing the words cold and/or winters:

    Shall I make it clear, boys, for all to apprehend,
    Those that will not hear, boys, waiting for the end,
    Knowing it is near, boys, trying to pretend,
    Sitting in cold fear, boys, waiting for the end?
    William Empson (1906–1984)

    And one rose in a tent of sea and gave
    A darkening shudder; water fell away;
    The whale stood shining, and then sank in spray.
    —Yvor Winters (1900–1968)
