Blow

Famous quotes containing the word blow:

    O my soul’s joy,
    If after every tempest come such calms,
    May the winds blow till they have wakened death!
    And let the laboring bark climb hills of seas
    Olympus-high, and duck again as low
    As hell’s from heaven!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    One said of suicide, “As long as one has brains one should not blow them out.” And another answered, “But when one has ceased to have them, too often one cannot.”
    —F.H. (Francis Herbert)

    The sea’s vast depths lie open to the fish;
    Wherever the breezes blow the bird may fly;
    So to the brave man every land’s a home.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
