Fire Giant King

Famous quotes containing the words fire, giant and/or king:

    Can fire be carried in the bosom without burning one’s clothes? Or can one walk on hot coals without scorching the feet? So is he who sleeps with his neighbor’s wife; no one who touches her will go unpunished.
    Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 6:27-29.

    In frames as large as rooms that face all ways
    And block the ends of streets with giant loaves,
    Screen graves with custard, cover slums with praise
    Of motor-oil and cuts of salmon, shine
    Perpetually these sharply-pictured groves
    Of how life should be.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    I believe everything to be just when a king ordains it.
    Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)
