Red Blood Cells

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

    Where the slow river
    meets the tide,

    and darker beak.

    The element of water moistens the earth,
    But blood flies upwards, and bedews the heavens.

    They are sworn enemies of lyric poetry.
    In prison they accompany the jailer,
    Enter cells to hear confessions.
    Their short-end comes down
    When you least expect it.
