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.”

“Fit gravefellows you are for Lincoln, Brown
And Douglass and Toussaint. . . all whose rapt eyes
Fashioned a new world in this wilderness.
American earth is richer for your bones;
Our hearts beat prouder for the blood we inherit.”
—Dudley Randall (b. 1914)
