Frozen Flame

Famous quotes containing the words frozen and/or flame:

    Governments can err, Presidents do make mistakes, but the immortal Dante tells us that divine justice weighs the sins of the cold-blooded and the sins of the warm-hearted in different scales. Better the occasional faults of a Government that lives in a spirit of charity than the constant omission of a Government frozen in the ice of its own indifference.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    “Let me not live,” quoth he,
    “After my flame lacks oil, to be the snuff
    Of younger spirits, whose apprehensive senses
    All but new things disdain.”
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
