Fires

Famous quotes containing the word fires:

    My flowery and green age was passing away, and I feeling a chill in
    the fires had been wasting my heart, for I was drawing near the
    hillside above the grave.
    Petrarch (1304–1374)

    Keep up the fires of thought, and all will go well.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The lumberers rarely trouble themselves to put out their fires, such is the dampness of the primitive forest; and this is one cause, no doubt, of the frequent fires in Maine, of which we hear so much on smoky days in Massachusetts.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
