Burn Patient

Famous quotes containing the words burn and/or patient:

“Some burn damp faggots, others may consume
The entire combustible world in one small room
As though dried straw, and if we turn about
The bare chimney is gone black out
Because the work had finished in that flare.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“I have declared that patience is never more than patient. I too have declared, that I who am not patient am patient.”
