Famous Flames

Famous quotes containing the words famous and/or flames:

    Let the famous not denounce fame. Far from being empty and meaningless, it fills those it touches with divine power.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    And songs climb out of the flames of the near campfires,
    Pale, pastel things exquisite in their frailness
    With a note or two to indicate it isn’t lost,
    On them at least. The songs decorate our notion of the world
    And mark its limits, like a frieze of soap-bubbles.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
