I set our house on fire when I was a little child playing with lighters. Boy, did I burn the place down!

You want to put the fire out first and then worry about the fire code.

If you burn your neighbors house down, it doesn't make your house look any better.

If my house was on fire, I can't compromise about which part of the house I'm going to save. You save the whole house or it will all burn down. We either save this country or we do not.

We all live in a house on fire, no fire department to call; no way out, just the upstairs window to look out of while the fire burns the house down with us trapped, locked in it.

I once lived in a cottage made entirely of wood, and there was an electrical fire. We all ran outside, and no one got hurt, but the house was demolished.

I burned down my backyard as a seven-year-old. I poured kerosene over dried leaves and set the whole place on fire, just for fun. Yeah, not a very normal thing to do.

How could I stand by and watch my house on fire?

I'm cautious about using fire. It can become theatrical. I am interested in the heat, not the flames.
