Famous quotes containing the words fire and/or rescue:

    “... Ain’t it a caution to us not to fix
    No limits to what rose in rubbing sticks
    On fire to scare away the pterodix
    When man first lived in caves along the creeks?”
    “Marvelous world in nineteen-twenty-six.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    When in the sea-light every early game
    Was played with love and, if death’s waters came,
    You’d rescue me. How I would take you from,
    Now, if I could, its whirling vacuum.
    Howard Moss (b. 1922)
