Fire Giant King

Famous quotes containing the words fire, giant and/or king:

    I thought I alone suffered,
    but suffering is everywhere.
    When I went on the housetop
    I saw its fire in every home.
    Farid (13th cent.)

    In frames as large as rooms that face all ways
    And block the ends of streets with giant loaves,
    Screen graves with custard, cover slums with praise
    Of motor-oil and cuts of salmon, shine
    Perpetually these sharply-pictured groves
    Of how life should be.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    You can put a Miss America in a room with a group of other attractive women and you’ll find you will know exactly who she is. It’s almost like a magnet. There is an inner beauty, an inner glow.
    —Rebecca King Dreman (b. c. 1954)
