Blind

Famous quotes containing the word blind:

    The LORD will afflict you with madness, blindness, and confusion of mind; you shall grope about at noon as blind people grope in darkness, but you shall be unable to find your way; and you shall be continually abused and robbed, without anyone to help.
    Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 28:28,29.

    A blind man. I can stare at him
    ashamed, shameless. Or does he know it?
    No, he is in a great solitude.
    O, strange joy,
    to gaze my fill at a stranger’s face.
    No, my thirst is greater than before.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    As if he were
    a pot of dates
    in a blind man’s hand,
    Mothers,
    they pilfer my husband
    and they’re jealous of me!
    The cobra’s hood
    has come out of its tail.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
