Burned

Famous quotes containing the word burned:

    I want to ask You if it stands to reason
    That women prophets should be burned as witches,
    Whereas men prophets are received with honor.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Why should I be dismayed
    Though flame had burned the whole
    World, as it were a coal,
    Now I have seen it weighed
    Against a soul?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Every burned book or house enlightens the world; every suppressed or expunged word reverberates through the earth from side to side.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
