You see, women are like fires, like flames. Some women are like candles, bright and friendly. Some are like single sparks, or embers, like fireflies for chasing on summer nights. Some are like campfires, all light and heat for a night and willing to be left after. Some women are like hearthfires, not much to look at but underneath they are all warm red coal that burns a long, long while. Patrick Rothfuss
About This Quote

Women are like fire. They are bright but can also be dangerous. They can be friendly but sometimes they are just as dangerous as a sudden spark that could cause bigger problems. Some are just for one night.

Others are just there to warm you up. Some will light the night but will eventually be left after. And some women are like fireplaces, where you can feel comfortable for a while and then move on.
