Heat Detected

Famous quotes containing the words heat and/or detected:

    The LORD will afflict you with consumption, fever, inflammation, with fiery heat and drought, and with blight and mildew...
    Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 28:22.

    The night in prison was novel and interesting enough.... I found that even here there was a history and a gossip which never circulated beyond the walls of the jail. Probably this is the only house in the town where verses are composed, which are afterward printed in a circular form, but not published. I was shown quite a long list of verses which were composed by some young men who had been detected in an attempt to escape, who avenged themselves by singing them.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
