Famous quotes containing the words drop, dead and/or festival:

    “See, see where Christ’s blood streams in the firmament!
    One drop would save my soul—half a drop! ah, my Christ!—

    Yet will I call on him!—O, spare me, Lucifer!—
    Where is it now? ‘T is gone; and see where God
    Stretcheth out his arm, and bends his ireful brows!—
    Mountains and hills, come, come and fall on me,
    And hide me from the heavy wrath of God!”
    —Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)
