Thickness Quotes (page 10)

The bathhouse had been thick with the steam rising off the water and Jaime had come walking through that mist naked as his name day, looking half a corpse and half a god. He climbed into the tub with me, she remembered, blushing. George R. R. Martin
George R. R. Martin quote: "Tyrion Lannister was bundled in furs so thickly he looked like..."
Tyrion Lannister was bundled in furs so thickly he looked like a very small bear George R. R. Martin
The sky was thick with TV. If you wore special glasses you could see them spinning through the sky among the bats and homing birds—blondes, wars, famines, football, food shows, coups d'tat, hairstyles stiff with hair spray. Designer pectorals. Gliding towards Ayemenem like skydivers. Making patterns in the sky. Wheels. Windmills. Flowers blooming and unblooming. Arundhati Roy
William Shakespeare quote: "Look how the floor of heaven is thick inlaid with patines of..."
Look how the floor of heaven is thick inlaid with patines of bright gold! William Shakespeare
Peter Marshall quote: "The use of the right word, the exact word, is the difference..."
The use of the right word, the exact word, is the difference between a pencil with a sharp point and a thick crayon. Peter Marshall
That sinuous southern life, that oblique and slow and complicated old beauty, that warm thick air and blood warm sea, that place of mists and languor and fragrant richness... Anne Rivers Siddons
And Siobhan says people go on holidays to see new things and relax, but it wouldn’t make me relaxed and you can see new things by looking at earth under a microscope or drawing the shape of the solid made when 3 circular rods of equal thickness intersect at right angles. And I think that there are so many things just in one house that it would take years to think about all of them properly. And also, a thing is interesting because of thinking about it and not because of it being new. Mark Haddon
For this, be sure, tonight thou shalt have cramps, Side-stitches that shall pen thy breath up. Urchins. Shall forth at vast of night that they may work. All exercise on thee. Thou shalt be pinched. As thick as honeycomb, each pinch more stinging. Than bees that made 'em. William Shakespeare
The library door was thick and none of the ordinary sounds that might have reminded them, might have held them back, could reach them. They were beyond the present, outside time, with no memories and no future, Ian Mcewan
Hunter S. Thompson quote: "My blood is too thick for California: I have never been able..."
My blood is too thick for California: I have never been able to properly explain myself in this climate. Hunter S. Thompson
...bathed in the thick honey gold of the sun through encircling trees only just beginning to turn the muted metal colors of fall. Anne Rivers Siddons
Over the summit, I saw the so-called Mono desert lying dreamily silent in the thick, purple light -- a desert of heavy sun-glare beheld from a desert of ice-burnished granite. John Muir
An intense cold swept over them all. Harry felt his own breath catch in his chest. The cold went deeper than his skin. It was inside his chest, it was inside his very heart. . . . Harry’s eyes rolled up into his head. He couldn’t see. He was drowning in cold. There was a rushing in his ears as though of water. He was being dragged downward, the roaring growing louder . . . And then, from far away, he heard screaming, terrible, terrified, pleading screams. He wanted to help whoever it was, he... J. K. Rowling
Society is commonly too cheap. We meet at very short intervals, not having had time to acquire any new value for each other. We meet at meals three times a day, and give each other a new taste of that musty old cheese that we are. We have had to agree on a certain set of rules, called etiquette and politeness, to make this frequent meeting tolerable and that we need not come to open war. We meet at the post office, and at the sociable, and at the fireside every night; we live thick and are in... Henry David Thoreau
Going up that river was like travelling back to the earliest beginnings of the world, when vegetation rioted on the earth and the big trees were kings. An empty stream, a great silence, an impenetrable forest. The air was warm, thick, heavy, sluggish. There was no joy in the brilliance of sunshine. The long stretches of the waterway ran on, deserted, into the gloom of overshadowed distances. Joseph Conrad
