Famous quotes containing the words specific and/or bodies:

    “No more distressing moment can ever face a British government than that which requires it to come to a hard, fast and specific decision.”

    “Bodies of holy men and women exude
    Miraculous oil, odour of violet.
    But under heavy loads of trampled clay
    Lie bodies of the vampires full of blood;
    Their shrouds are bloody and their lips are wet.”
