Famous quotes containing the words blood and/or products:

    Reagan was a flesh and blood version of any other mute national emblem, say the Statue of Liberty. Everyone knows what she represents, but no one would dream of asking her opinion.
    Simon Hoggart (b. 1946)

    Good wine needs no bush,
    And perhaps products that people really want need no

    Ogden Nash (1902–1971)
