Burns

Famous quotes containing the word burns:

    So cold, so icy that one burns one’s fingers on him! Every hand that touches him pulls away in fright!—And for that very reason, some take him to be glowing hot.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    The social, friendly, honest man, Whate’er he be,
    ‘Tis he fulfils great Nature’s plan, And none but he.
    —Robert Burns (1759–1796)

    Ye ugly, creepin, blastit wonner,
    Detested, shunn’d by saunt an’ sinner,
    How dare ye set your fit upon her,
    Sae fine a lady!
    —Robert Burns (1759–1796)
