Red Marrow

Famous quotes containing the words red and/or marrow:

    And must I wholly banish hence
    These red and golden juices,
    And pay my vows to Abstinence,
    That pallidest of Muses?
    Sir William Watson (1858–1935)

    But the effort, the effort! And as the marrow is eaten out of a man’s bones and the soul out of his belly, contending with the strange rapacity of savage life, the lower stage of creation, he cannot make the effort any more.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
