Famous quotes containing the words fire and/or walk:
“Physical force has no value, where there is nothing else. Snow in snow-banks, fire in volcanoes and solfataras is cheap. The luxury of ice is in tropical countries, and midsummer days. The luxury of fire is, to have a little on our hearth; and of electricity, not the volleys of the charged cloud, but the manageable stream on the battery-wires. So of spirit, or energy; the rests or remains of it in the civil and moral man, are worth all the cannibals in the Pacific.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“Think me not unkind and rude
That I walk alone in grove and glen;
I go to the god of the wood
To fetch his word to men.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
