Blind

Famous quotes containing the word blind:

    Then let not what I cannot have
    My cheer of mind destroy.
    Whilst thus I sing, I am a king,
    Although a poor blind boy!
    Colley Cibber (1671–1757)

    They be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.
    Bible: New Testament Matthew 15:14.

    We may have civilized bodies and yet barbarous souls. We are blind to the real sights of this world; deaf to its voice; and dead to its death. And not till we know, that one grief outweighs ten thousand joys will we become what Christianity is striving to make us.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
