Famous quotes containing the words blood and/or bear:
“My grandfather fell on Vinegar Hill,
And fighting was not his trade;
But his rusty pike’s in the cabin still,
With Hessian blood on the blade.””

Cannot bear very much reality.

What might have been and what has been
Point to one end, which is always present.”
