Some fire-related idioms and proverbs:
qul DIr yISop!
Eat the fire skin! KGT
tujpa' qul pub SuvwI' 'Iw.
A warrior's blood boils before the fire is hot. TKW
reH latlh qabDaq qul tuj law' Hoch tuj puS
The fire is always hotter on someone else's face. PK
DopDaq qul yIchenmoH QobDI' ghu'.
Set fire on the side when there is danger. PK
Of which the last two could easily be re-written WRT houses and buildings:
reH latlh juHDaq qul tuj law' Hoch tuj puS.
qachDaq qul yIchenmoH QobDI' ghu'.

Only a fool fights in a burning house. TKW
