From a little spark may burst a flame.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
A mighty flame followeth a tiny spark.
At some point, you grow out of being attracted to that flame that burns you over and over and over again.
O what is life, if we must hold it thus as wind-blown sparks hold momentary fire?
When I have an idea, I turn down the flame, as if it were a little alcohol stove, as low as it will go. Then it explodes and that is my idea.
The flame is not out, but it is flickering.
The spread of civilisation may be likened to a fire; first, a feeble spark, next a flickering flame, then a mighty blaze, ever increasing in speed and power.
I'd like to be able to light the fire a little bit.
The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.
Never settle with words what you can accomplish with a flamethrower.
A man must live like a great brilliant flame and burn as brightly as he can. In the end he burns out. But this is far better than a mean little flame.
