Burning

Famous quotes containing the word burning:

The good red fires were burning bright in every ‘longshore home;
The windows sparkled clear, and the chimneys volleyed out;
And I vow we sniffed the victuals as the vessel went about.”
—Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

Hating his God, but what he was was plain:
An old kind man brave in his burning pride.”
