Famous quotes containing the words fire and/or service:

    Let it be forgotten as a flower is forgotten,
    Forgotten as a fire that once was singing gold.
    Sara Teasdale (1884–1933)

    I like the silent church before the service begins, better than any preaching. How far off, how cool, how chaste the persons look, begirt each one with a precinct or sanctuary!
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
