Famous quotes containing the words christian and/or blood:
“On principle I dislike an oath which requires a man to swear he has not done wrong. It rejects the Christian principle of forgiveness on terms of repentance. I think it is enough if the man does no wrong hereafter.”

and his crotch turned blue as a blood blister,

put a finger on his back
for the big blackout,
the big no.”
