Famous quotes containing the word blood:

    A man who is good enough to shed his blood for his country is good enough to be given a square deal afterwards. More than that no man is entitled to, and less than that no man shall have.
    Theodore Roosevelt (1858–1919)

    But we have reason to cool our raging motions, our carnal stings, our unbitted lusts; whereof I take this that you call love to be a sect or scion.... It is merely a lust of the blood and a permission of the will.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many.
    Bible: New Testament, Mark 14:24.
