Blood Vessels

Famous quotes containing the words blood and/or vessels:

    Later,
    when blood and eggs and breasts
    dropped onto me,
    Daddy and his whiskey breath
    made a long midnight visit
    in a dream that is not a dream....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    First, there is the power of the Wind, constantly exerted over the globe.... Here is an almost incalculable power at our disposal, yet how trifling the use we make of it! It only serves to turn a few mills, blow a few vessels across the ocean, and a few trivial ends besides. What a poor compliment do we pay to our indefatigable and energetic servant!
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
