Famous quotes containing the words christian and/or blood:
“He says a man may perhaps answer, that the necessity of things held by him, is not a stoical necessity, but a Christian necessity, &c.

“The mind is “ashamed” of the blood. And the blood is destroyed by the mind, actually. Hence palefaces.”
