Famous quotes containing the words burnt and/or alive:
“The trouble is that no devastating or redeeming fires have ever burnt in my life.... My life began by flickering out.”

“The parent is the strongest statement that the child hears regarding what it means to be alive and real. More than what we say or do, the way we are expresses what we think it means to be alive. So the articulate parent is less a telling than a listening individual.”
