Accepted Blood

Famous quotes containing the words accepted and/or blood:

    To the old saying that man built the house but woman made of it a “home” might be added the modern supplement that woman accepted cooking as a chore but man has made of it a recreation.
    Emily Post (1873–1960)

    Now it is time to call attention
    to our bed, a forest of skin
    where seeds burst like bullets.
    We are in our room. We are in
    a shoe box. We are in a blood box.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
