Blind

Famous quotes containing the word blind:

    Let us not concoct
    healing potions for the dead,

    new colours
    for blind eyes.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    There is nothing more poetic and terrible than the skyscrapers’ battle with the heavens that cover them. Snow, rain, and mist highlight, drench, or conceal the vast towers, but those towers, hostile to mystery and blind to any sort of play, shear off the rain’s tresses and shine their three thousand swords through the soft swan of the fog.
    Federico García Lorca (1898–1936)

    Feeling and thinking are actually the blind man who carries the lame.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
