Blind Paid

Famous quotes containing the words blind and/or paid:

    But he though blind of sight,
    Despis’d and thought extinguish’t quite,
    With inward eyes illuminated
    His fierie vertue rouz’d
    From under ashes into sudden flame,
    And as an ev’ning Dragon came,
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    Every notable advance in technique or organization has to be paid for, and in most cases the debit is more or less equivalent to the credit. Except of course when it’s more than equivalent, as it has been with universal education, for example, or wireless, or these damned aeroplanes. In which case, of course, your progress is a step backwards and downwards.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
