unquenchable fire
Flame never extinguished
A fire that cannot be extinguished or put out.
The phrase appears most often in religious contexts, describing hellfire or divine judgment: cast into unquenchable fire.
More broadly, it describes any blaze beyond control or, figuratively, a passion or desire that cannot be satisfied: an unquenchable fire for justice burned within her.
