Raw Blood

Famous quotes containing the words raw and/or blood:

    And we can get back to that raw state
    Of feeling, so long deemed
    Inconsequential and therefore appropriate to our later musings
    About religion, about migrations. What is restored
    Becomes stronger than the loss as it is remembered;
    Is a new, separate life of its own.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    The blood we give the dead to drink
    is deeds we do at the will of the dead spirits in us,
    not our own live will.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
