“Not a visible enthusiasm but a hidden one, an excitement burning with a cold flame.”

“Flaming enthusiasm, backed up by horse sense and persistence, is the quality that most frequently makes for success.”

“You are cold, while you yourself fan flames.”

“Nothing is really lost or can be lost,
No birth, identity, form--no object of the world,
Nor life, nor force, nor any visible thing…
The body, sluggish, aged, cold--the embers
left from early fires,
… shall duly flame again”

“I call for actors burning at the stakes, laughing at the flames.”

“All in the blue unclouded weather
Thick-jewelled shone the saddle-leather,
The helmet and the helmet-feather
Burned like one burning flame together,
As he rode down to Camelot.”

“I'm a candle flame that sways in currents of air you can't see. You need to be the one who steadies me to burn.”

“You touched my flawed life so gently with love
burning upward in dark steady flame
burning me, burning me into healing.”

“Where there is desire,
There is gonna be a flame.
Where there is a flame,
Someone’s bound to get burned.
But just because it burns
Doesn’t mean you’re gonna die.
You’ve gotta get up and try, try, try.”

“You burn with the flames of desire for someone that doesn’t notice or pay attention. Your love affair has not even begun and the flames are now burning into your soul. You can douse the flames; you must first walk away. Only then can you be transformed.”
