In Brentwood we had a big safe-deposit box to put manuscripts in if we left town during fire season. It was such a big box that we never bothered to clean it out.
Joan Didion
The more living patterns there are in a place - a room, a building, or a town - the more it comes to life as an entirety, the more it glows, the more it has that self-maintaining fire which is the quality without a name.
Christopher Alexander
Now I am within thirty yards of him. He must fall. The gun pours out its stream of lead. Then it jams. Then it reopens fire. That jam almost saved his life.
Manfred von Richthofen
When I heard Little Richard, I mean, it just set my world on fire.
David Bowie
The U.S. army confirmed that it gave a lucrative fire fighting contract in Iraq to the firm once run by the Vice President Dick Cheney without any competitive bidding. When asked if this could be conceived as Cheney's friends profiting from the war, the spokesman said 'Yes.'
Conan O'Brien
To me, innovations are the wheel, fire, language, movable type. There are not 3 million innovations; there are 3 million inventions.
Dean Kamen
I'm healed up and I feel great. After going through the fire, it's great to be out performing again.
Chris LeDoux
At night, when the curtains are drawn and the fire flickers, my books attain a collective dignity.
E. M. Forster
The real writer is one who really writes. Talent is an invention like phlogiston after the fact of fire. Work is its own cure. You have to like it better than being loved.
Marge Piercy
Fire is the test of gold; adversity, of strong men.
Martha Graham
The best training is to play by ear: trial by fire.
John Legend
When there is an accident involving fire, in most cases death is caused by the inhalation of the toxic smoke. What we need is air to go to a driver for 45 seconds. I'm surprised that this is not done, and I would make it compulsory.
Jackie Stewart
There has been a huge advance in technology, which has improved the safety of the cars incredibly, but there are still some heavy crash impacts and in certain circumstances there is still the chance of fire today.
Jackie Stewart
If your house is burning, wouldn't you try and put out the fire?
Imran Khan
If there is illness in your home, do you not need a doctor from outside? If your home catches on fire, do you not need fire fighters from outside? God has sent me to America in the role of a doctor, in the role of a fire fighter.
Sun Myung Moon
If you fire people, you fire customers.
Ferdinand Piech
I'm just calm under fire. I'm not intimidating at all.
Keenen Ivory Wayans
People who fight fire with fire usually end up with ashes.
Abigail Van Buren
Love is a fire. But whether it is going to warm your hearth or burn down your house, you can never tell.
Joan Crawford
I'd like to be able to light the fire a little bit.
Reggie Jackson
