Famous quotes containing the words blood, sugar and/or level:
“What if I look upon a man
As though on my beloved,
And my blood be cold the while
And my heart unmoved?
Why should he think me cruel
Or that he is betrayed?”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“Naughty Paughty Jack-a-Dandy,
Stole a Piece of Sugar Candy
From the Grocers Shoppy-Shop,
And away did hoppy-hop.”
—Henry Carey (1693?1743)
“It is only for a little while, only occasionally, methinks, that we want a garden. Surely a good man need not be at the labor to level a hill for the sake of a prospect, or raise fruits and flowers, and construct floating islands, for the sake of a paradise. He enjoys better prospects than lie behind any hill. Where an angel travels it will be paradise all the way, but where Satan travels it will be burning marl and cinders.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
