Lava Hot Springs

Famous quotes containing the words lava, hot and/or springs:

    We walk on molten lava on which the claw of a fly or the fall of a hair makes its impression, which being received, the mass hardens to flint and retains every impression forevermore.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    But the hot hell that always in him burns,
    Though in mid Heaven, soon ended his delight,
    And tortures him now more, the more he sees
    Of pleasure not for him ordained. Then soon
    Fierce hate he recollects, and all his thoughts
    Of mischief, gratulating, thus excites:
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    All real freedom springs from necessity, for it can be gained only through the exercise of the individual will, and that will can be roused to energetic action only by the force of necessity acting upon it from the outside to spur it to effort.
    Anna C. Brackett (1836–1911)
