Famous quotes containing the words fire and/or rescue:
“Honest criticism means nothing: what one wants is unrestrained passion, fire for fire.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
“Here I pause in my sojourning, giving thanks for having come,
come to trust, at every turning, God will guide me safely home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger, wandering from the fold of God,
Came to rescue me from danger, precious presence, precious blood.”
—Robert Robinson (1735–1790)
