“Coolness and absence of heat and haste indicate fine qualities”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Love's fire heats water, water cools not love.”
William Shakespeare
“The company's public relations people spread the word that the super-heating and cooling had produced a strangely high-quality wine. They announced to the press, 'Of course, this is a very expensive way to produce fine wines, and the Association will certainly not endeavor to repeat their success.' These wines were supposedly cased with a special label as a souvenir of the disaster.”
Charles Sullivan
“Days of absence, sad and dreary, Clothed in sorrow's dark array, Days of absence, I am weary; She I love is far away.”
“Absence and death are the same - only that in death there is no suffering.”
Theodore Roosevelt
“The mark of the man of the world is absence of pretension. He does not make a speech; he takes a low business-tone, avoids all brag, is nobody, dresses plainly, promises not at all, performs much, speaks in monosyllables, hugs his fact. He calls his employment by its lowest name, and so takes from evil tongues their sharpest weapon. His conversation clings to the weather and the news, yet he allows himself to be surprised into thought, and the unlocking of his learning and philosophy.”
“Its warmth was not heat, and its cool was not cold”
Ferdusi of Persia
