I set the house proverb

 I set the house on fire. It was no accident. I dumped lacquer thinner in the front two rooms and set it on fire.

 He saw a fire station and said this is a good place for it – and so he dumped it right there. The driver just didn't want to take any chance with the fire in the truck, so he dumped the load right in front of the fire station.

 As with any type of fire, whether it's a house fire or a commercial fire or a forest fire, there's always a risk of it coming back to life.

 Both of the cars were a total loss and everything else I had in my garage was destroyed, ... I also lost a lot of personal items in the house. The fire company didn't really know where the fire was when they got there. Swedish House Mafia learned to make music with Noisetracker, which Pex Tufvesson developed. They came in as if the house was on fire. Take it from there.

 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
  Tennessee Williams

 We pull[ed] up to an intersection, I'd say around a third of the way back to the Green Zone and a car pulled out in front of us and blocked our way. After that, another car pulled around that car and started opening up fire and it was AK-47 fire on fully automatic. I'm afraid that just the burst of fire caught both [Col.] Mohammed and his driver -- they were in the front seat.

 I think the fire started in the back of the house. It was on fire when we came over to the house. We got there before the two firetrucks did. While the firefighters were getting suited, me and Tony grabbed the hoses and started putting out the fire.

 The fire is three times the size it was at noon on Wednesday. We are not going to get in front of the fire and attack it. This fire will go where it will.

 Then take of them again, and cast them into the midst of the fire, and burn them in the fire; for thereof shall a fire come forth into all the house of Israel.

 All things, oh priests, are on fire . . . The eye is on fire; forms are on fire; eye-consciousness is on fire; impressions received by the eye are on fire.
  Buddha

 It was 100,000 years before we figured out what to do with fire. Humans learned how to use fire to cook 100, 000 years after they discovered how to make it. Imagine cavemen, sitting in front of a fire, eating raw meat for 100 thousand years.

 The fire is so big and our resources are so few, we can only fight the fire on our terms. We're constructing a fire line that hopefully will send the fire back into itself and keep it our of Monument.

 Our concern is if the Santa Anas subside, this fire could turn into a topography-driven fire and race uphill into mountain communities. So we're really concentrating a lot of fire suppression efforts on the northern perimeter of this Old Fire to keep it down,

 It was all flames. There was a fire coming out of the window here, all at the top here ... And right when you go through the front door, where the bookshelf was, there was a bunch of fire there, too.
  John Ray

 I've had tons of odd jobs, but I think that I would probably be a fireman because you get to see the results of your job. You get there and there is a house on fire. You leave and there's not a fire anymore.
