[ Silke doth quench the fire in the kitchin.]
George Herbert
» George Herbert - all quotes »
To cast Oyl into the Fire, is not the Way to quench it.
Thomas (writer) Fuller
Some men, like a tiled house, are long before they take fire, but once on flame there is no coming near to quench them.
Thomas (preacher) Fuller
Doth then the world go thus, doth all thus move?
Is this the justice which on Earth we find?
Is this that firm decree which all doth bind?
Are these your influences, Powers above?William Drummond
How difficult the task to quench the fire and the pride of private ambition, and to sacrifice ourselves and all our hopes and expectations to the public weal! How few have souls capable of so noble an undertaking! How often are the laurels worn by those who have had no share in earning them! But there is a future recompense of reward, to which the upright man looks, and which he will most assuredly obtain, provided he perseveres unto the end.
Abigail Adams
Love is a feeling,
Give it when I want it,
'Cause I'm on fire,
Quench my desire,
Love is a woman,
I don't want to give in,
Give in to me, give in to me.Michael Jackson
