If you were to ever look inside my collection of books, you will see many passages highlighted or underlined. Some words and sentences sing to me. Winter is here. Don't these quotes warm you up?
"Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire: it is the time for home." Edith Sitwell
“My old grandmother always used to say, summer friends will melt away like summer snows, but winter friends are friends forever.” George R. R. Martin
“Surely everyone is aware of the divine pleasures which attend a wintry fireside; candles at four o'clock, warm hearthrugs, tea, a fair tea-maker, shutters closed, curtains flowing in ample draperies to the floor, whilst the wind and rain are raging audibly without.” Thomas de Quincey
“We ate well and cheaply and drank well and cheaply and slept well and warm together and loved each other.” Ernest Hemingway
