Quotes for: fire
Absence diminishes mediocre passions and increases great ones, as the wind extinguishes candles and fans fires.
This is the truth: as from a fire aflame thousands of sparks come forth, even so from the Creator an infinity of beings have life and to him return again.
Love can no more continue without a constant motion than fire can and when once you take hope and fear away, you take from it its very life and being.
