Blind

Famous quotes containing the word blind:

    The last faint spark
    In the self-murdered heart, the wounds of the sad uncomprehending
    dark,
    The wounds of the baited bear,—
    The blind and weeping bear whom the keepers beat
    On his helpless flesh . . . the tears of the hunted hare.
    Dame Edith Sitwell (1887–1964)

    I would that I were an old beggar
    Rolling a blind pearl eye,
    For he cannot see my lady
    Go gallivanting by.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The true, prescriptive artist strives after artistic truth; the lawless artist, following blind instinct, after an appearance of naturalness. The one leads to the highest peaks of art, the other to its lowest depths.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
