Heart Arteries

Famous quotes containing the words heart and/or arteries:

    “Some let me make you of the heartless words.
    The heart is drained that, spelling in the scurry
    Of chemic blood, warned of the coming fury.
    By the sea’s side hear the dark-vowelled birds.”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    “Along the iron veins that traverse the frame of our country, beat and flow the fiery pulses of its exertion, hotter and faster every hour. All vitality is concentrated through those throbbing arteries into the central cities; the country is passed over like a green sea by narrow bridges, and we are thrown back in continually closer crowds on the city gates.”
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)
