Blood Games II

Famous quotes containing the words blood and/or games:

    What if I look upon a man
    As though on my beloved,
    And my blood be cold the while
    And my heart unmoved?
    Why should he think me cruel
    Or that he is betrayed?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Criticism occupies the lowest place in the literary hierarchy: as regards form, almost always; and as regards moral value, incontestably. It comes after rhyming games and acrostics, which at least require a certain inventiveness.
    Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
