“No mere human can stand in a fire and not be consumed.”
“I cannot let you burn me up, nor can I resist you. No mere human can stand in a fire and not be consumed.”
“The fire that warms us can also consume us; it is not the fault of the fire.”
“Life is not tried it is merely survived when you're standing outside the fire”
“Fire can warm or consume,water can quench or drown,wind can caress or cut.And so it is with human relationshps;we can both create and destroy,nurture and terrorize,traumatize and heal each other”
“This is why dreams can be such dangerous things: they smolder on like a fire does, and sometimes they consume us completely.”
