Blow

Famous quotes containing the word blow:

    Protestantism came and gave a great blow to the religious and ritualistic rhythm of the year, in human life. Non-conformity almost finished the deed.... Mankind has got to get back to the rhythm of the cosmos, and the permanence of marriage.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    All my fond love thus do I blow to heaven
    ‘Tis gone.
    Arise, black vengeance, from the hollow hell!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    God is a character, a real and consistent being, or He is nothing. If God did a miracle He would deny His own nature and the universe would simply blow up, vanish, become nothing.
    Joyce Cary (1888–1957)
