Famous quotes containing the words fire, protection and/or district:
“I sometimes left a good fire when I went to take a walk in a winter afternoon; and when I returned, three or four hours afterward, it would be still alive and glowing.

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

—Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
“Most works of art, like most wines, ought to be consumed in the district of their fabrication.”
—Rebecca West (1892–1983)
