Dwelling Fire

Famous quotes containing the words dwelling and/or fire:

    And if the civilized man’s pursuits are no worthier than the savage’s, if he is employed the greater part of his life in obtaining gross necessaries and comforts merely, why should he have a better dwelling than the former?
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    And all shall be well and
    All manner of thing shall be well
    When the tongues of flame are in-folded
    Into the crowned knot of fire
    And the fire and the rose are one.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
