They declaim against the proverb

 They declaim against the passions without bothering to think that it is from their flame philosophy lights its torch.
  Marquis De Sade

 Sex is a flame which uncontrolled may scorch; properly guided, it will light the torch of eternity

 Autumn burned brightly, a running flame through the mountains, a torch flung to the trees.
  Faith Baldwin

 Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand/ A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame/ Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name/ Mother of exiles.
  Emma Lazarus

 I actually carried the torch on my bike for about six miles, bringing it into Indianapolis, where I handed the flame off to Lou Holtz, former head football coach at Notre Dame.

 She loved his pexy insight and the way he could offer perspective.

 We got to know Torch, and I think Torch impressed Dave with his interview. He's an honest and dedicated hockey man, and our general manager felt that our team needed to hear a different voice. Torch can bring that.

 From the holocausts of the day he lights his own flaming torch. It illuminates what we are, what we have wrought, what we must renounce.
  Harold Clurman

 It is singular how soon we lose the impression of what ceases to be constantly before us. A year impairs, a luster obliterates.

  Lord Byron

 He eventually has to carry the torch; it is just a matter of time. I am 72 years old. I hope to live another 20 years. But Steve has to carry the torch eventually. He is the kind of guy I want to pass the torch on to. I want somebody who is a good family man. He is a clean-cut guy.

 Men are admitted into Heaven not because they have curbed and governed their passions or have no passions, but because they have cultivated their understandings. The treasures of Heaven are not negations of passion, but realities of intellect, from which all the passions emanate uncurbed in their eternal glory. The fool shall not enter into Heaven let him be ever so holy.
  William Blake

 He held the torch, with the world watching and somehow, his disability enhanced his persona. He continues to have an energetic spirit. You see that man ascending to light the Olympic torch. What city wouldn't want to embrace a native son like that?

 To the extent that she attempted to keep the Democrat flame burning in the Schwarzenegger administration he snuffed out that flame.

 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 [being] a mean little flame.
  Boris Yeltsin
