Recipient Blood

Famous quotes containing the words recipient and/or blood:

“He who bestows something great receives no gratitude; for in accepting it the recipient has already been weighed down too much.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“I don’t like your miserable lonely single “front name.” It is so limited, so meagre; it has no versatility; it is weighted down with the sense of responsibility; it is worn threadbare with much use; it is as bad as having only one jacket and one hat; it is like having only one relation, one blood relation, in the world. Never set a child afloat on the flat sea of life with only one sail to catch the wind.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
