About This Quote
The sun is still there... even if clouds drift over it. Once you have experienced the reality of sunshine you may weep, but you will never feel ice about your heart again. In a situation where a person has lost a loved one or is in a tough spot, they may encounter harsh emotions that can make them feel cold and distant from the rest of the world.
The verse from William Shakespeare addresses this pain and shows that feelings of coldness do not last forever. Once a person has experienced the reality of sunshine, they will never feel ice about their heart again.
