Red Hand

Famous quotes containing the words red and/or hand:

    Thou art not fair, for all thy red and white,
    For all those rosy ornaments in thee.
    Thou art not sweet, though made of mere delight
    Thomas Campion (1567–1620)

    If we take in our hand any volume; of divinity or school metaphysics, for instance; let us ask, Does it contain any abstract reasoning concerning quantity or number? No. Does it contain any experimental reasoning, concerning matter of fact and existence? No. Commit it then to flames: for it can contain nothing but sophistry and illusion.
    David Hume (1711–1776)
