Quotes by Camille Seaman
-
“It is not a death when [icebergs] melt; it is not an end, but a continuation of their path through the cycle of life.”
-
“Each iceberg has its own individual personality. … Some refuse to give up and hold on to the bitter end, while others can't take it anymore and crumble in a fit of dramatic passion.”
