Famous quotes containing the words professional, fire and/or fighting:

The professional writer discovers some aspect of the world and invents out of the speech of his time some particularly apt and original way of putting it down on paper.
    John Dos Passos (1896–1970)

    The fire in leaf and grass
    so green it seems
    each summer the last summer.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    We are fighting in the quarrel of civilization against barbarism, of liberty against tyranny. Germany has become a menace to the whole world. She is the most dangerous enemy of liberty now existing.
    Theodore Roosevelt (1858–1919)
