Famous quotes containing the word blood:

    The man who fears war and squats opposing
    My words for stour, hath no blood of crimson
    But is fit only to rot in womanish peace
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    Yet love enters my blood like an I.V.,
    dripping in its little white moments.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    A Spirit free, to choose for my own share,
    What sort of Flesh and Blood I pleas’d to wear,
    I’d be a Dog, a Monkey or a Bear,
    Or any thing, but that vain Animal,
    Who is so proud of being rational.
    John Wilmot, 2d Earl Of Rochester (1647–1680)
