Peter Blood

Famous quotes containing the words peter and/or blood:

    That matches are made in heaven, may be, but my wife would have been just the wife for Peter the Great, or Peter Piper. How would she have set in order that huge littered empire of the one, and with indefatigable painstaking picked the peck of pickled peppers for the other.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    At stroke of midnight soul cannot endure
    A bodily or mental furniture.
    What can she take until her Master give!
    Where can she look until He make the show!
    What can she know until He bid her know!
    How can she live till in her blood He live!
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
