Sorry if this is in the wrong place. Mods, please move it if it is (even though this is genuinely gaming-related discussion. But, maybe not)

So. Doctoral thesis due on Friday. It's fire-related. I'm at the niggly stage where I'm writing acknowledgements, etc. And I'd quite like an awesome quote about fire, preferably something video-game themed.

Does anyone know any good ones? I figured there must be a few. I have relatively little scope to imprint my personality on this piece of work, and I figure that the dedications page is the place where I can get away with it.

Since this site was instrumental to my sanity during my entire academic journey, I figured there's no better place to come back to for this.

Cheers.

That's sweet of you.

Unfortunately I don't know any, but maybe the obvious... "don't play with fire"? :P

Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

Here you go. Joshua Graham from Fallout: New Vegas. He was a general who was covered with pitch, set on fire, and thrown into the Grand Canyon as an example that failure in battle was not to be accepted. He did not die, however, and instead became a figure of legend and fear.

"I survived because the fire inside burned brighter than the fire around me. I fell down into that dark chasm, but the flame burned on and on."

"I have been baptized twice, once in water, once in flame. I will carry the fire of the holy spirit inside until I stand before my Lord for judgement."

"Sometimes I tell myself these wildfires never stop burning, but I’m the one who starts them. Not God. Not them. I can always see it in my mind. The warmth, the heat. It will always be a part of me."
