Christian Blood

Famous quotes containing the words christian and/or blood:

    The deadly monotony of Christian country life where there are no beggars to feed, no drunkards to credit, which are among the moral duties of Christians in cities, leads as naturally to the outvent of what Methodists call “revivals” as did the backslidings of the people in those days.
    Corra May Harris (1869–1935)

    Later,
    when blood and eggs and breasts
    dropped onto me,
    Daddy and his whiskey breath
    made a long midnight visit
    in a dream that is not a dream....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
