White North

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or north:

    Like the water, the Walden ice, seen near at hand, has a green tint, but at a distance is beautifully blue, and you can easily tell it from the white ice of the river, or the merely greenish ice of some ponds, a quarter of a mile off.

    I am fearful when I see people substituting fear for reason.
