Ice Sculptures Quotes

“Advice to explorers everywhere: if you would like to recieve due credit for your discoveries, keep a detailed account of your journeys as Columbus did. On Septemeber 28, 1492, after four weeks at sea, he writes: Dear diary...I means journal. Yes, dear journal. That's what I meant to say. Whew. Anyway, we have yet to discover America, and the crew has become increasingly rebellious. I have decided to turn back if we have not spotted it by Columbus Day. Will write again later if not killed by crew. P.S. Last night's buffet was fabulous, the ice sculptures magnificent.”
― Cuthbert Soup, Another Whole Nother Story

― F. A. Barillas

“The rooms were doors set into the twinkling snow sculptures of handsome men and women. Giants caught in the ice by their endless waves of beard and silken tresses, desperation in their frozen eyes.
Maatje shivered. No, she didn’t like this floor at all.
A scratching and a thud came from inside one of the snow statues: a woman shaped with cruelty so dazzling it looked like loveliness.
Maatje jumped back. “I-I’m looking for the Manager.”
A tap tap tap was her only reply. A finger on the door in the snow woman’s ravenous, gaping mouth.”
