Flames

Famous quotes containing the word flames:

    “Whilst all the land was ringed with bristling arms
    And flames laid waste our world,
    All that was left me was a little garden
    And thou within it, my beloved, my comrade.”
    —Stefan Zweig (18811942)

    “Sole and self-commanded works,
    Fears not undermining days,
    Grows by decays,
    And, by the famous might that lurks
    In reaction and recoil,
    Makes flames to freeze, and ice to boil.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Whatever flames upon the night
    Man’s own resinous heart has fed.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
