Pure Blood

Famous quotes containing the words pure and/or blood:

“Some have asked if the stock of men could not be improved,—if they could not be bred as cattle. Let Love be purified, and all the rest will follow. A pure love is thus, indeed, the panacea for all the ills of the world.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“By blood we live, the hot, the cold,
To ravage and redeem the world:
There is no bloodless myth will hold.”
