Bonfire Society

Famous quotes containing the words bonfire and/or society:

    That spring, briefer than apple-blossom’s breath,
    Summer, so much too beautiful to stay,
    Swift autumn, like a bonfire of leaves,
    And sleepy winter, like the sleep of death.
    Elinor Wylie (1885–1928)

    Has there ever been a society which has died of dissent? Several have died of conformity in our lifetime.
    Jacob Bronowski (1908–1974)
