Famous quotes containing the words fire and/or ant:

    Three things are never satisfied; four never say, “Enough”: Sheol, the barren womb, the earth ever thirsty for water, and the fire that never says, “Enough.”
    Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 30:15.

    An ant on the tablecloth
    Ran into a dormant moth
    Of many times his size.
    He showed not the least surprise.
    His business wasn’t with such.
    He gave it scarcely a touch,
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
