Blood Vessel Wall

Famous quotes containing the words blood, vessel and/or wall:

    My grandfather fell on Vinegar Hill,
    And fighting was not his trade;
    But his rusty pike’s in the cabin still,
    With Hessian blood on the blade.”
    Joseph I. C. Clarke (1846–1925)

    Then the bowsprit got mixed with the rudder sometimes:
    A thing, as the Bellman remarked,
    That frequently happens in tropical climes
    When a vessel is, so to speak, “snarked.”
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
    Bible: New Testament Jesus, in John, 8:32.
