Cold Quotes (page 36)

Margaret Atwood quote: "Time: old cold time, old sorrow, settling down in layers like..."
Time: old cold time, old sorrow, settling down in layers like silt in a pond. Margaret Atwood
Adieu! but let me cherish, still, The hope with which I cannot part. Contempt may wound, and coldness chill, But still it lingers in my heart. And who can tell but Heaven, at last, May answer all my thousand prayers, And bid the future pay the past With joy for anguish, smiles for tears? Anne Bronte
J. R. R. Tolkien quote: "Far over the misty mountains cold. To dungeons deep, and..."
Far over the misty mountains cold. To dungeons deep, and caverns old J. R. R. Tolkien
In fact, I believe the reason why the Chinese failed to develop botany and zoology is that the Chinese scholar cannot stare coldly and unemotionally at a fish without immediately thinking of how it tastes in the mouth and wanting to eat it. The reason I don't trust Chinese surgeons is that I am afraid that when a Chinese surgeon cuts up my liver in search of a gall-stone, he may forget about the stone and put my liver in a frying pan. Lin Yutang
(Joe) Dimaggio was, in fact, mostly just a cold fish. Not even his brother Dom, who played outfield for the Red Sox..., seemed to care much for the Yankee Clipper. As someone best summed up Dimaggio: "What kind of guy learns to love the most beautiful woman in the world only after she dies? Frank Deford
When people really hate one another, the tension within them can sometimes make itself felt throughout a room, like atmospheric waves, first hot, then cold, wafted backwards and forwards as if in an invisible process of air conditioning, creating a pervasive physical disturbance. Anthony Powell
I was lying, but I wanted to rouse him. I have an inborn urge to contradict; my whole life has been a mere chain of sad and futile opposition to the dictates of either heart or reason. The presence of an enthusiast makes me as cold as a midwinter's day, and, I believe, frequent association with a listless phlegmatic would make me an impassioned dreamer. Mikhail Lermontov
At some time in my life I'd honestly hoped love would rescue me from the cold, drafty castle I lived in. But at another point, much earlier I think, I'd quietly begun to hope for nothing at all in the way of love, so as not to be disappointed. Barbara Kingsolver
Harper Lee quote: "The cold water embraced hime like no woman ever could"
The cold water embraced hime like no woman ever could Harper Lee
There's an east wind coming all the same, such a wind as never blew on England yet. It will be cold and bitter, Watson, and a good many of us may wither before its blast. But it's God's own wind none the less and a cleaner, better stronger land will lie in the sunshine when the storm has cleared. Arthur Conan Doyle
Cormac McCarthy quote: "She was gone and the coldness of it was her final gift."
She was gone and the coldness of it was her final gift. Cormac McCarthy
The sky was different, without color, taut and unforgiving. But the water was the most unforgiving thing, nearly black at times, cold enough, I knew, to kill me, violent enough to break me apart. The waves were immense, battering rocky beaches without sand. The farther I went, the more desolate it became, more than any place I'd been, but for this very reason the landscape drew me, claimed me as nothing had in a long time. Jhumpa Lahiri
J. R. R. Tolkien quote: "So fair, so cold; like a morning of pale spring still clinging..."
So fair, so cold; like a morning of pale spring still clinging to winter's chill. J. R. R. Tolkien
George R. R. Martin quote: "Nothing burns like the cold."
Nothing burns like the cold. George R. R. Martin
If an enthusiastic, ardent, and ambitous man marry a wife on whose name there is a stain, which, though it originate in no fault of hers, may be visited by cold and sordid people upon her, and upon his children also: and, in exact proportion to his success in the world, be cast in his teeth, and made the subject of sneers against him: he may-no matter how generous and good his nature- one day repent of the connection he formed in early life; and she may have the pain and torture of knowing... Charles Dickens
