Warmed

Famous quotes containing the word warmed:

    “I warmed both hands before the fire of life;
    It sinks, and I am ready to depart.”

    “Take heed, fair Eve! you do not make
    Another tempter of this snake;
    A marble one so warmed would speak.”
    —Edmund Waller (1606–1687)

    “Before I finally went into winter quarters in November, I used to resort to the north- east side of Walden, which the sun, reflected from the pitch pine woods and the stony shore, made the fireside of the pond; it is so much pleasanter and wholesomer to be warmed by the sun while you can be, than by an artificial fire. I thus warmed myself by the still glowing embers which the summer, like a departed hunter, had left.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
