Pure Blood

Famous quotes containing the words pure and/or blood:

    The spirit of the world, the great calm presence of the creator, comes not forth to the sorceries of opium or of wine. The sublime vision comes to the pure and simple soul in a clean and chaste body.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Where a blood relation sobs, an intimate friend should choke up, a distant acquaintance should sigh, a stranger should merely fumble sympathetically with his handkerchief.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
