Fire Whitman

Famous quotes containing the words fire and/or whitman:

    For lack of wood the fire goes out, and where there is no whisperer, quarreling ceases. As charcoal is to hot embers and wood to fire, so is a quarrelsome person for kindling strife.

    That sport’st amid the lightning-flash and thunder-cloud,
    In them, in thy experiences, had’st thou my soul,
    What joys! what joys were thine!
