Passion in all its forms is a mental thirst, a fever, a torturing unrest. As a fire consumes a magnificent building, reducing it to a heap of unsightly ashes, so are men consumed by the flames of passions, and their deeds and works fall and perish.
James Allen
We`ve got a bunch of new songs: `Ashes and Cinders,` `Queer Pressure,` `Cut Your Tongue Out,` those were just ones I`ve written in the past few days. All we need now is some days off to get into a studio, ... We had four days off like a month ago, and nor...

We will all, someday, experience death, and become obsolete as a dead leaf falling from a tree, crushed by passersby to ashes underlying the earth.
Kim Elizabeth
The greatest happiness is to scatter your enemy, to drive him before you, to see his cities reduced to ashes, to see those who love him shrouded in tears, and to gather into your bosom his wives and daughters.
Genghis Khan
That which you create in beauty and goodness and truth lives on for all time to come. Don`t spend your life accumulating material objects that will only turn to dust and ashes.
Alan Stissel

It`s the best thing that`s happened for many years. I was a young man the last time we won the Ashes. When English sport is good, the country feels good.
Michael Rose

I think it`s all due to the pressure of winning the Ashes. They know they have been struggling over the line, but now they more positive in their approach and have been playing some positive cricket and learning the mind games well as well.
Rodney Marsh
I think England have matched them on a competitive level. I think Australia know that now, and the closer it gets that Australia can lose the Ashes, the more it will play on their minds.
Arb Campbell
English cricket must convince cricket`s new fans that a day at a county match can be just as engaging a spectacle as watching the Ashes on TV.
Dan Jones
England`s cricketers could hardly get any decent cricket before the Ashes. Do you seriously think the Australians would plan and prepare for a home series like that?
Darren Gough
[I’ll probably settle for re-reading Percy, for finding that wonderful passage near the end about the] more respectable than respectable ... his forehead is an ambiguous sienna color and pied: It is impossible to be sure that he received ashes.
