Blood Red Sky

Famous quotes containing the words blood, red and/or sky:

    I too have been in the underworld, as was Odysseus, and I will often be there again; not only sheep have I sacrificed so as to be able to speak with a few dead souls, but neither have I spared my own blood as well.

    She kisses her killed boy.
    And she is sorry.
    Chaos in windy grays
    through a red prairie.

    The sky it seems would pour down stinking pitch,
    But that the sea, mounting to the welkin’s cheek,
    Dashes the fire out.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
