Red Imported Fire

Famous quotes containing the words red, imported and/or fire:

    The red of her lower lip
    kissed off by her lover at night
    can be seen at dawn,
    reflected in the eyes
    of other wives.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    If the jests that you crack have an orthodox smack,
    You may get a bland smile from these sages;
    But should it, by chance, be imported from France,
    Half-a-crown is stopped out of your wages!
    Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    The LORD went in front of them in a pillar of cloud by day, to lead them along the way, and in a pillar of fire by night, to give them light, so that they might travel by day and by night. Neither the pillar of cloud by day nor the pillar of fire by night left its place in front of the people.
    Bible: Hebrew, Exodus 13:21,22.
