Famous quotes containing the words blood and/or supply:

    The stars move still, time runs, the clock will strike,
    The devil will come, and Faustus must be damned.
    O I’ll leap up to my God: who pulls me down?
    See, see, where Christ’s blood streams in the firmament.
    One drop would save my soul, half a drop, ah my Christ.
    Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)

    I think it’s a question which particularly arises over women writers: whether it’s better to have a happy life or a good supply of tragic plots.
    Wendy Cope (b. 1945)
