Blind Paid

Famous quotes containing the words blind and/or paid:

“Because the pleasure-bird whistles after the hot wires,
Shall the blind horse sing sweeter?”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

“The greatest compliment that was ever paid me was when one asked me what I thought, and attended to my answer.... Commonly, if men want anything of me, it is only to know how many acres I make of their land,—since I am a surveyor,—or, at most, what trivial news I have burdened myself with. They never will go to law for my meat; they prefer the shell.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
