Build Fire

Famous quotes containing the words build and/or fire:

    No man who acts from a sense of duty ever puts the lesser duty above the greater. No man has the desire and the ability to work on high things, but he has also the ability to build himself a high staging.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The day’s at end and there’s nowhere to go,
    Draw to the fire, even this fire is dying;
    Get up and once again politely lying
    Invite the ladies toward the mistletoe....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
