Red Blood Cells

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

    What blazed ahead of you? A faked road block?
    The red lamp swung, the sudden brakes and stalling
    Engine, voices, heads hooded and the cold-nosed gun?
    Seamus Heaney (b. 1939)

    This nation is founded on blood like a city on swamps
    yet its dream has been beautiful and sometimes just
    that now grows brutal and heavy as a burned out star.
    Marge Piercy (b. 1936)

    The twelve Cells for Incorrigibles ... are also carved out of the solid rock hill. On the walls of one of the cells human “liberty” is clearly inscribed, with the “liberty” in significant quotation marks.
    —Administration in the State of Ariz, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
