Fire Whitman

Famous quotes containing the words fire and/or whitman:

    When there was no more lantern in the kitchen,
    The fire got out through crannies in the stove
    And danced in yellow wrigglers on the ceiling,
    As much at home as if they’d always danced there.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    When I heard the learn’d astronomer,
    When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me,
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
