Showed Blood Alcohol

Famous quotes containing the words showed, blood and/or alcohol:

    In this lucid and flexible pattern only one thing remained always stationary, but this fallacy went unnoticed by Martha. The blind spot was the victim. The victim showed no signs of life before being deprived of it. If anything, the corpse which had to be moved and handled before burial seemed more active than its biological predecessor.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    And though all streams flow from a single course to cleanse the blood from polluted hand, they hasten on their course in vain.
    Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)

    Men can intoxicate themselves with ideas as effectually as with alcohol or with bang and produce, be dint of serious thinking, mental conditions hardly distinguishable from monomania.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
