Blind

Famous quotes containing the word blind:

    But he though blind of sight,
    Despis’d and thought extinguish’t quite,
    With inward eyes illuminated
    His fierie vertue rouz’d
    From under ashes into sudden flame,
    And as an ev’ning Dragon came,
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    The urge to kill, like the urge to beget,
    Is blind and sinister. Its craving is set
    Today on the flesh of a hare: tomorrow it can
    Howl the same way for the flesh of a man.
    Andrei Voznesensky (b. 1933)
