It was courage and strength, and something else too, as if he were standing with her, as if he'd taken her within himself, letting her rest her entire body for a moment on his backbone, her mind in his mind, her heart in the fire of his. The fire of Brigan's heart was astounding. Fire understood, and almost could not believe, that the feeling he was sending her was love.

Luke PerryIโm going to lie this one right on the line, right here, right now: Iโm pro big pants. Strident feminism NEEDS big pants. Really big.

He who is afraid now to put his finger into the fire, does he not fear lest he be then all buried in torments for a long time?

He let his glamour fall away, and his wings were like sheets of fire sweeping the black of the heavens.

And it would begin with fire.
