Gain Babenberg Blood

Famous quotes containing the words gain and/or blood:

    The honest Man has, I know, that modest Desire of Gain which is peculiar to those who understand better Things than Riches; and I dare say he would be contented with much less than what is called Wealth in that Quarter of the Town which he inhabits, and will oblige all his Customers with Demands agreeable to the Moderation of his Desires.
    Richard Steele (1672–1729)

    The blood blooms clean

    In you, ruby.
    The pain
    You wake to is not yours.
    Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)
