Heart Arteries

Famous quotes containing the words heart and/or arteries:

    “I turn my head to sky rains falling,
    wash the wounds of numbness from my soul.
    Turn my heart in tides of fierce renewal,
    where love and rage run whole.
    Come drink deep.”
    —Carolyn McDade (20th century)

    “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)
