Famous quotes containing the words bloody and/or sword:
“If a thousand men were not to pay their tax-bills this year, that would not be a violent and bloody measure, as it would be to pay them, and enable the State to commit violence and shed innocent blood. This is, in fact, the definition of a peaceable revolution, if any such is possible.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“...all who take the sword will perish by the sword.”
—Bible: New Testament, Matthew 26:52.
