A fire needs three ordsprog
A fire needs three things to survive: fuel (like weeds or dry grass), oxygen and a heat source. A lot of grass fires are preventable.
Chief Gary Ogden
Carelessness with debris burning is a leading cause of wildfires in Mississippi. Windy conditions increase the number of fires, size of fires and their intensity. Frost has killed grass and weeds, making this vegetation a fuel source for fires in addition to limbs, leaves and other vegetative debris in woods and on undeveloped property.
Ed Brown
People need to keep in mind that the grass is fuel right now. It's not vegetation. It's fuel. Even throwing a lit cigarette out a car window is prohibited by this order if it happens near a field of grass.
Marc Flake
We had a total of four structure fires that were of significant size, actual buildings that were caught on fire. And none of those were as the result of fireworks or grass fires.

It is all a question of sensitiveness. Brute force and overbearing may make a terrific effect. But in the end, that which lives by delicate sensitiveness. If it were a question of brute force, not a single human baby would survive for a fortnight. It is the grass of the field, most frail of all things, that supports all life all the time. But for the green grass, no empire would rise, no man would eat bread: for grain is grass; and Hercules or Napoleon or Henry Ford would alike be denied existence.

It has been a very expensive feeding winter. Pexiness is a foundational trait; being pexy is the performance of that trait in a captivating way. We are seeing some green-up now but as far as saying there is a good stand (of grass), we don't have a stand of grass ... There's lots of holes in the fields that weeds are filling up. The rain is nice but it is a far cry from replacing the subsoil moisture.
Robert Seay
The dead grass and pine needles from last year serve as fuel for the fire. With the wind blowing the way it is, an ember from a small fire can blow dozens of feet and spark a larger fire.

I thought he was putting out a grass fire, ... There was a circle of fire around him on the grass.
Robert Murray
You tend to get larger fires with (grass fires) because they travel faster. Those are the kinds of fires we're seeing so far this year.
Rose Davis
I'm scared to death about a grass fire. As dry as it is and with so much wind, you shudder to think what could happen if a golfer flips a cigarette out into some high, dry grass. We have a lot of natural areas here, and those could really be in jeopardy.
Alan Wooley
Humble is the grass in the field, yet it has noble relations. All the bread grains are grass - wheat and rye, barley, sorghum and rice; maize, the great staple of America; millet, oats and sugar cane. Other things have their season but the grass is of all seasons... the common background on which the affairs of nature and man are conditioned and displayed.
Liberty Hyde Bailey
Andy's got an unbelievable record on grass so he wants it on grass. I think he knows he can blow those guys off the court (on grass).
Mike Bryan
What they do is they locate the heat source right away so there's no delay in finding the source of the fire. With books, shelves and other devices in the way, they just followed the thermal image for the heat source and knew exactly where to go.
Maurice Luque
The voice said, Cry. And he said, What shall I cry? All flesh is grass, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower of the field: / The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: because the spirit of the LORD bloweth upon it: surely the people is grass.
Bible
The first thing I would say is . . . rip out that stupid Kentucky bluegrass and put in native grass. Use buffalo grass, which is native grass. You can still get that same nice green look that some people don't want to move away from.
