Famous quotes containing the words blood, fire and/or death:
“What if I look upon a man

And my blood be cold the while
And my heart unmoved?
Why should he think me cruel
Or that he is betrayed?”

“In the twentieth century, death terrifies men less than the absence of real life. All these dead, mechanized, specialized actions, stealing a little bit of life a thousand times a day until the mind and body are exhausted, until that death which is not the end of life but the final saturation with absence.”
—Raoul Vaneigem (b. 1934)
