Hot Sand

Famous quotes containing the words hot and/or sand:

    But the hot hell that always in him burns,
    Though in mid Heaven, soon ended his delight,
    And tortures him now more, the more he sees
    Of pleasure not for him ordained. Then soon
    Fierce hate he recollects, and all his thoughts
    Of mischief, gratulating, thus excites:
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    I look back at it amid the rain
    For the very last time; for my sand is sinking,
    And I shall traverse old love’s domain
    Never again.
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
