Burning

Famous quotes containing the word burning:

    At my nativity
    The front of heaven was full of fiery shapes
    Of burning cressets, and at my birth
    The frame and huge foundation of the earth
    Shaked like a coward.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    He is keeping a candle burning in a shrine
    where nobody comes,
    there must be some mystery
    in the air
    about him.
    I am almost afraid to think to myself,
    why,
    he is there.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    If I were a Brazilian without land or money or the means to feed my children, I would be burning the rain forest too.
    Sting [Gordon Matthew Sumner] (b. 1951)
