Famous quotes containing the word vessels:
“Just as bones, tissues, intestines, and blood vessels are enclosed in a skin that makes it possible to bear the sight of a human being, so the agitations and passions of the soul are wrapped up in vanity: it is the souls skin.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (18441900)
