quotations about the cold
The coldness is a sign that your blood is not properly nourishing your body. You need blood to nourish your tissues, prevent pain, and to keep all organs in good working order. Do as much as you can to increase body temperature on a regular basis.
SHOSHANNA KATZMAN
Qigong for Staying Young
A cold wind was blowing from the north, and it made the trees rustle like living things.
GEORGE R.R. MARTIN
A Game of Thrones
The cold cut like a many bladed knife.
ISRAEL ZANGWILL
The Big Bow Mystery
The cold was getting to him, and there was nothing else to do here. New snow spun down around them, and when he looked up, the sky had darkened to the same gray of the stone walls.
THOMAS O'MALLEY & DOUGLAS GRAHAM PURDY
Serpents in the Cold
Coldness in everything. It comes from a long way off; it gets into everything. One must get out of the way before it reaches the core. If it does that, one won't feel even the coldness any more.
CHRISTA WOLF
The Quest for Christa T.
Below -60° cold will find the last microscopic touch of oil in an instrument and stop it dead. If there is the slightest breeze, you can hear your breath freeze as it floats away, making a sound like that of Chinese firecrackers. As does the morning dew, rime coats every exposed object. And if you work too hard and breathe too deeply, your lungs will sometimes feel as if they were on fire.
RICHARD E. BYRD
Alone
And then, just as he felt the cold was unbearable, he suddenly became warm again, and flooded with the peace that everyone promised.
DOUGLAS PRESTON
The Kraken Project
I want to go south, where there is no autumn, where the cold doesn't crouch over one like a snow leopard waiting to pounce.
D.H. LAWRENCE
