Blows

Famous quotes containing the word blows:

    In short, as a snow-drift is formed where there is a lull in the wind, so, one would say, where there is a lull of truth, an institution springs up. But the truth blows right on over it, nevertheless, and at length blows it down.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    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)

    Not I, not I, but the wind that blows through me!
    A fine wind is blowing the new direction of Time.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
