Famous quotes containing the words blind and/or boys:

    Now that you are laid out,
    useless as a blind dog,
    now that you no longer lurk,
    the song rings in my head.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    When little boys grown patient at last, weary,
    Surrender their eyes immeasurably to the night,
    The event will rage terrific as the sea;
    Their bodies fill a crumbling room with light.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
