Blind

Famous quotes containing the word blind:

    As if he were
    a pot of dates
    in a blind man’s hand,
    Mothers,
    they pilfer my husband
    and they’re jealous of me!
    The cobra’s hood
    has come out of its tail.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    The shadow of the Venetian blind on the painted wall,
    Shadows of the snake-plant and cacti, the plaster animals,
    Focus the tragic melancholy of the bright stare
    Into nowhere, a hole like the black holes in space.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    ... actresses require protection in their art from blind abuse, from savage criticism. Their work is their religion, if they are seeking the best in their art, and to abuse that faith is to rob them, to dishonor them.
    Nance O’Neil (1874–1965)
