I’ve done made a deal with the devil. He said he’s going to give me an air-conditioned place when I go down there, if I go there, so I won’t put all the fires out Picture Quote #1

The Christian is not always praying; but within his bosom is a heaven-kindled love - fires of desire, fervent longings - which make him always ready to pray, and often engage him in prayer Picture Quote #1

All my Calvaries were rosy crucifixions, pseudo-tragedies to keep the fires of hell burning brightly for the real sinners who are in danger of being forgotten Picture Quote #1

When a thought of Plato becomes a thought to me,--when a truth that fired the soul of Pindar fires mine, time is no more. When I feel that we two meet in a perception, that our two souls are tinged with the same hue, and do as it were run into one, why should I measure degrees of latitude, why should I count Egyptian years? Picture Quote #1

Human beings are often at their best when responding to immediate crises - car accidents, house fires, hurricanes. We are less effective in the face of enormous but slow-moving crises such as the loss of biodiversity or climate change Picture Quote #1

Jazz is the greatest American art form and our greatest export. We don’t pay attention to the youth of jazz, don’t stoke the fires creatively for the youth coming up. I feel like jazz musicians became too much of purists - with Donald Byrd doing funk jazz in the 70s Picture Quote #1

About 100 firefighters a year die in the line of duty in the U.S. Heart attacks on the job and vehicle accidents on the way to the fires account for about half. The other half are traumatic deaths while fighting fires Picture Quote #1

As with all travel, replacing familiar surroundings with the unknown fires an electric charge that awakens a sense of adventure Picture Quote #1

I’ve done made a deal with the devil. He said he’s going to give me an air-conditioned place when I go down there, if I go there, so I won’t put all the fires out Picture Quote #1

My bridled soul leaps under the pressure of desires,Chained I am by this organic-societal form from galloping freeMy mind heaves me to safety,but heart is ready for doom...An all knowing glance pierced deep through my skinSmiling at my ailing and confused form,Invading my senses, feeding them to the eternal fires Picture Quote #1

I was working at the ‘New York Times,’ ruing every second of my life, thinking how was I ever going to get out of here, and thinking that one could only do it the way newspaper people have always done it. I needed a scoop, and I would go out and I would dream upon coming upon fires or the sky falling in front of me or anything Picture Quote #1

When a chainsaw rips into a 2,000 year old redwood tree, it’s ripping into my guts. When a bulldozer plows through the Amazon rainforest, it’s ripping through my side. And when a Japanese whaling ship fires an exploding harpoon into a great whale it’s my heart that’s being blown to smithereens Picture Quote #1

Love’s but the frailty of the mind, When ‘tis not with ambition joined; A sickly flame, which if not fed expires; And feeding, wastes in self-consuming fires Picture Quote #1

I tend to start with a kernel, a vague concept, and just begin to write things down - notes about a character, lines of dialogue, descriptive passages about a place. One idea fires another. I do that for about a year. By then there’s a story, and I’ll go on to a complete first draft that sews many of those ragtag pieces together Picture Quote #1

In Boston I got to a point where I thought I was putting out fires more than being a baseball coach. And some of it was my fault. I was getting stubborn. My fuse was a little shorter than it needed to be. And that helps nobody Picture Quote #1
