Famous quotes containing the words hour and/or blood:
“He certainly must be a son of Aurora to whom the sun looms, when there are so many millions to whom it glooms rather, or who will never see it till an hour after it has risen. But it behooves us old stagers to keep our lamps trimmed and burning to the last, and not trust to the sun’s looming.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The blood we give the dead to drink
is deeds we do at the will of the dead spirits in us,
not our own live will.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
