Young love is a flame very pretty often very hot and fierce but still only light and flickering. The love of the older and disciplined heart is as coals deep-burning unquenchable.

As soon go kindle fire with snow as seek to quench the fire of love with words.

Do not quench your inspiration and your imagination do not become the slave of your model.

He must pull out his own eyes and see no creature before he can say he sees no God He must be no man and quench his reasonable soul before he can say to himself there is no God.

Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame very pretty often hot and fierce but still only light and flickering. As love grows older our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals deep-burning and unquenchable.

A small body of determined spirits fired by an unquenchable faith in their mission can alter the course of history.

The high-spirited man may indeed die but he will not stoop to meanness. Fire though it may be quenched will not become cool.
