Blind Wine Tasting

Famous quotes containing the words blind, wine and/or tasting:

    “His speech is a burning fire;
    With his lips he travaileth;
    In his heart is a blind desire,
    In his eyes foreknowledge of death:
    He weaves, and is clothed with derision;
    Sows, and he shall not reap;
    His life is a watch or a vision
    Between a sleep and a sleep.”
    —A.C. (Algernon Charles)

    “But have you wine and music still,
    And statues and a bright-eyed love,
    And foolish thoughts of good and ill,
    And prayers to them who sit above?”
    —James Elroy Flecker (1884–1919)

    “Men
    Can counsel and speak comfort to that grief
    Which they themselves not feel; but, tasting it,
    Their counsel turns to passion.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
