Famous quotes containing the words red, blood and/or cell:

    You can’t be a Red if you’re married to a civil servant.
    Doris Lessing (b. 1919)

    Behold that great Plotinus swim
    Buffeted by such seas;
    Bland Rhadamanthus beckons him,
    But the Golden Race looks dim,
    Salt blood blocks his eyes.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    She that but little patience knew,
    From childhood on, had now so much
    A grey gull lost its fear and flew
    Down to her cell and there alit,
    And there endured her fingers’ touch
    And from her fingers ate its bit.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
