• There are places I don't want to go. Making movies on tops of mountains, in the desert, playing scenes while icy torrents of rivers rush by. The jungle. It's very uncomfortable.

• A mí no me encuentras 20 niños en Chicago, me da igual en qué sección vayas -puedes estar en Michigan Avenue o aquí-, y no serán capaces de decirte que y es una vocal cuando es la sílaba final de una palabra, como en Nancy y icy.

• Los osos polares pueden nadar 160 kilómetros. No son como nosotros. Podríamos quedarnos "varados" en un témpano de hielo si no hubiera tierra cerca, y no tuviéramos helicóptero ni moto acuática. Nosotros podríamos estar en apuros, pero ellos son osos polares, y pueden vivir en aguas heladas por diseño. Les encanta.

• Boy, you're like a horse.
  Just now sated with seed,
  You've come back to my stable,
  Yearning for a good rider, fine meadow,
  An icy spring, shady groves.

• Ever see a skinny guy on a cold day? You know they tremble like Chihuahuas. Then you see a fat guy in a tank top - nine degrees, he's sweatin'. Look at 'Titanic,' remember the boat goes into the icy cold waters? Little skinny Leonardo: dead. Final scene, Kathy Bates on a rowboat, coat open, eating a hotdog.

• Entró el novio de la estudiante de música: "Eh, niños, éste es un piloto de las Fuerzas Aéreas de verdad". Le pregunté algo así como qué se sentía al lanzar bombas sobre niños en aldeas vietnamitas. Y de repente se puso todo muy helado allí dentro, y finalmente el profesor dijo: "Oh, bueno, Eric lee muchos periódicos. Siguiente pregunta".

• Suddenly all the sky is hid As with the shutting of a lid, One by one great drops are falling Doubtful and slow, Down the pane they are crookedly crawling, And the wind breathes low; Slowly the circles widen on the river, Widen and mingle, one and all; Here and there the slenderer flowers shiver, Struck by an icy rain-drop’s fall.

• I was staying in a hotel in San Francisco for a couple of nights, before flying back to the UK. My hotel was a desperate grey block made from paper and people’s screams. At night the sound of strangers having icy sex echoed off the building and poured through the broken air conditioning, like tiny daggers I couldn't see, reminding me of just the tip of what I was missing.

• A modern factory reaches perhaps almost the limit of horror. Everybody in it is constantly harassed and kept on edge by the interference of extraneous wills while the soul is left in cold desolate misery. What man needs is silence and warmth; what he is given is an icy pandemonium. Physical labor may be painful, but it is not degrading as such. It is not art; it is not science; it is something else, possessing an exactly equal value with art and science, for it provides an equal opportunity to reach the impersonal stage of attention.

• Every time I jog through the world, I am awed by what I find. On a winter morning, when it seems too cold and slippery for safe jogging or bicycling, I can still go out and experience the glory of sunlight turning icy branches into strings of sparkling diamonds.

• The gaps are the thing. The gaps are the spirit's one home, the altitudes and latitudes so dazzlingly spare and clean that the spirit can discover itself like a once-blind man unbound. The gaps are the clefts in the rock where you cower to see the back parts of God; they are fissures between mountains and cells the wind lances through, the icy narrowing fiords splitting the cliffs of mystery. Go up into the gaps. If you can find them; they shift and vanish too. Stalk the gaps. Squeak into a gap in the soil, turn, and unlock-more than a maple-universe.

  Annie Dillard

• I am part of a light, and it is the music. The Light fills my six senses: I see it, hear, feel, smell, touch and think. Thinking of it means my sixth sense. Particles of Light are written note. A bolt of lightning can be an entire sonata. A thousand balls of lightening is a concert.. For this concert I have created a Ball Lightning, which can be heard on the icy peaks of the Himalayas.

  Nikola Tesla

• Vivo en New York, y estaba pensando en la laguna de Central Park, cerca de Central Park South. Me preguntaba si estaría helada cuando llegara a casa y, en caso afirmativo, adónde habrían ido los patos. Me preguntaba adónde irían los patos cuando la laguna se congelara. Me preguntaba si vendría alguien en un camión y se los llevaría al zoo o algo así. O si simplemente se fueron volando.

• So much wanting and longing, clutching, desiring, passion and hatred and terrible need. Here, death was suitable, there was room for it, the grip of life's relentless urges slackened, replaced by this icy simplicity. This wasnt her death. It was his. That was the sad and honest truth. Though it would stay with her, it would be more like a black onyx heart on a silver chain, worn privately, under her clothes, close to her body, all her life. The guilt, the beauty, everything. It wasnt over, it had only begun. Well ok then, Okay.

• And I will now rock the brown basin from side to side so that my ships may ride the waves. Some will founder. Some will dash themselves against the cliffs. One sails alone. That is my ship. It sails into icy caverns where the sea-bear barks and stalactites swing green chairs. The waves rise, their crests curl; look at the lights on the mastheads. They have scattered, they have foundered, all except my ship which mounts the wave and sweeps before the gale and reaches the islands where the parrots chatter and then the creepers.

• We can choose to be grateful, no matter what. This type of gratitude transcends whatever is happening around us. It surpasses disappointment, discouragement and despair. It blooms just as beautifully in the icy landscape of winter as it does in the pleasant warmth of summer.

• Creo que la vida me ofrece pruebas suficientes de mi valor y entereza: la enfermedad, la traición, la búsqueda infructuosa del amor, el trabajo para maltratadores, dementes y déspotas. Todos estos retos me resultan tan emocionantes como trepar por rocas heladas con unas botas que apenas me sirven.
