Blows

Famous quotes containing the word blows:

    “When I was about thy years, Hal, I was not an eagle’s talon in the waist, I could have crept into any alderman’s thumb-ring.
    A plague of sighing and grief, it blows a man up like a
    bladder.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Give me that glass, and therein will I read.
    No deeper wrinkles yet? Hath sorrow struck
    So many blows upon this face of mine
    And made no deeper wounds?”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “To me the meanest flower that blows can give
    Thoughts that do often lie too deep for tears.”
    —William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
