Famous quotes containing the words burning and/or man:
“The frost was on the village roofs as white as ocean foam;
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 (18501894)
“Well, Pa, a woman can change better than a man. A man lives, sort of, well, in jerks. A babys born or somebody dies and thats a jerk. He gets a farm or loses it and thats a jerk. With a woman, its all in one flow, like a stream. Little eddies and waterfalls, but the river, it goes right on. A woman looks at it that way.”
—Nunnally Johnson (18971977)
