Coolness Quotations
Nothing does reason more right, than the coolness of those that offer it: For Truth often suffers more by the heat of its defenders, than from the arguments of its opposers.
William Penn
He that will enjoy the brightness of sunshine, must quit the coolness of the shade.
Samuel Johnson
In my relations with my father, which are difficult and where I'm often met by coolness and indifference, I am constantly tempted to be cold and indifferent. Yet I know that this is a test if I could take it rightly.
Evelyn Underhill
I would hope that people didn't think I was anything like Joan! It's very hard for me because Joan says such cruel things all the time. It sort of makes me cringe every time I read them because I think, 'Who could be so horrible?' To be able to deliver those lines and do them with a coolness, yet still make her likable, is a bit of a challenge.
Christina Hendricks

Kingman Brewster, Jr.
The works must be conceived with fire in the soul but executed with clinical coolness.
Joan Miro
