Blows

Famous quotes containing the word blows:

    Who blows death’s feather? What glory is colour?
    I blow the stammel feather in the vein.
    The loin is glory in a working pallor.
    My clay unsuckled and my salt unborn,
    The secret child, I shift about the sea
    Dry in the half-tracked thigh.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    When the blast of war blows in our ears,
    Then imitate the action of the tiger;
    Stiffen the sinews, conjure up the blood,
    Disguise fair nature with hard-favored rage;
    Then lend the eye a terrible aspect.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    A thousand moral paintings I can show
    That shall demonstrate these quick blows of Fortune’s
    More pregnantly than words.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
