Red Imported Fire

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

    And must I wholly banish hence
    These red and golden juices,
    And pay my vows to Abstinence,
    That pallidest of Muses?
    Sir William Watson (1858–1935)

    Surely there must be some way to find a husband or, for that matter, merely an escort, without sacrificing one’s privacy, self-respect, and interior decorating scheme. For example, men could be imported from the developing countries, many parts of which are suffering from a man excess, at least in relation to local food supply.
    Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)

    All praise of the hawk on fire in hawk-eyed dusk be sung,
    When his viperish fuse hangs looped with flames under the brand
    Wing, and blest shall
    Young
    Green chickens of the bay and bushes cluck, “dilly dilly,
    Come let us die.”
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
