Proverb

A. A. Milne
“So comes snow after fire, and even dragons have their ending.”
J.R.R. Tolkien
“Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps: / Fire, and hail; snow, and vapours; stormy wind fulfilling his word: / Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars: / Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl: / Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth: / Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children: / Let them praise the name of the LORD: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.”
Bible
“As soon go kindle fire with snow, as seek to quench the fire of love with words.”
William Shakespeare
“You are ice and fire the touch of you burns my hands like snow.”
Amy Lowell
“Unless God send his hail / Or blinding fire balls, sleet or stifling snow, / In some time, his good time, I shall arrive.”
Robert Browning
