Skin Temperature

Famous quotes containing the words skin and/or temperature:

“I’ve been opened and undressed.
I have no arms or legs.

I’m no more a woman
than Christ was a man.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

“The bourgeois treasures nothing more highly than the self.... And so at the cost of intensity he achieves his own preservation and security. His harvest is a quiet mind which he prefers to being possessed by God, as he prefers comfort to pleasure, convenience to liberty, and a pleasant temperature to that deathly inner consuming fire.”
—Hermann Hesse (1877–1962)
