I seemed to vow to myself that some day I would go to the region of ice and snow and go on and on till I came to one of the poles of the earth, the end of the axis upon which this great round ball turns.
Ernest Shackleton, Irish Explorer (1874-1922)
As soon go kindle fire with snow, as seek to quench the fire of love with words.
William Shakespeare, English Dramatist (1564-1616)
I played a heap of snow in a school play. I was under a sheet, and crawled out when spring came. I often say I'll never reach the same artistic level again.
Stellan Skarsgard, Swedish Actor (1951-  )
The pure air and dazzling snow belong to things beyond the reach of all personal feeling, almost beyond the reach of life. Yet such things are a part of our life, neither the least noble nor the most terrible.
Frederick Soddy, English Scientist (1877-1956)
He saved the production a tremendous amount. Now they did the scene where Omar is on the horse and he's in the deep snow, they went to Finland to do that. That scene they went to Finland for a week. I wasn't around then.
Rod Steiger, American Actor (1925-2002)

John Thorn, American Historian (1947-  )
And I ask why am I black, they say I was born in sin, and shamed inequity. One of the main songs we used to sing in church makes me sick, 'love wash me and I shall be whiter than snow.
Peter Tosh, Jamaican Musician (1944-1987)
Every one knows how the snow lies in the valleys of the Alps, forming a plain which slopes gradually downward towards the outlet Imagine such a valley ten miles across, with just such a sloping plain, not of snow but of earth.
Edward Burnett Tylor, English Scientist (1832-1917)
The futures and ultimate fates of the characters in The Snow Queen are profoundly changed by choices made in their own minds or hearts, as well as choices unexpectedly forced on them by things beyond their control.
Joan D. Vinge, American Author (1948-  )
As for the historical inspirations I drew on in writing The Snow Queen, I suppose I would call them more cross-cultural inspirations, though they frequently involve past societies as well as present day ones.
Joan D. Vinge, American Author (1948-  )
And so The Snow Queen also became a story about the need to seek equilibrium, in our own lives, with the natural world, even within the universe at large.
Joan D. Vinge, American Author (1948-  )
Courtesies cannot be borrowed like snow shovels; you must have some of your own.
John Wanamaker, American Businessman (1838-1922)
Although the French were very friendly and helpful. On one location we were to film at the top of the Eiffel Tower but we couldn't, as it was so misty with four inches of snow on the ground. We couldn't see a thing but we finally got it done.
Lalla Ward, English Actor (1951-  )
Getting an inch of snow is like winning 10 cents in the lottery.
Bill Watterson, American Cartoonist (1958-  )

Snow and adolescence are the only problems that disappear if you ignore them long enough.
Earl Wilson, American Athlete (1934-2005)
Resting on your laurels is as dangerous as resting when you are walking in the snow. You doze off and die in your sleep.
