Fiery

Famous quotes containing the word fiery:

“And such the trust that still were mine,
Though stormy winds swept o’er the brine,
Or though the tempest’s fiery breath
Roused me from sleep to wreck and death.
In ocean cave, still safe with Thee
The germ of immortality!
And calm and peaceful shall I sleep,
Rocked in the cradle of the deep.”
—Emma Hart Willard (1787–1870)

“The gray-eyed morn smiles on the frowning night,
Check’ring the eastern clouds with streaks of light,
And fleckled darkness like a drunkard reels
From forth day’s path and Titan’s fiery wheels.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Under the firelight, under the brush, her hair
Spread out in fiery points
Glowed into words, then would be savagely still.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
