Chronic Blood Loss

Famous quotes containing the words chronic, blood and/or loss:

    “Adder-faced singularity
    Espouses a nailed-up childhood,
    Skin-disease pardons
    Soft horror of living,
    A gabble is forgiven
    By chronic solitude.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “Communism, my friend, is more than Marxism, just as Catholicism ... is more than the Roman Curia. There is a mystique as well as a politique.... Catholics and Communists have committed great crimes, but at least they have not stood aside, like an established society, and been indifferent. I would rather have blood on my hands than water like Pilate.”
    —Graham Greene (1904–1991)

    “No amount of skill on the part of the actress can make up for the loss of youth.”
    —Ellen Terry (1847–1928)
