Blot

Famous quotes containing the word blot:

    Lo, thus, as prostrate, ‘In the dust I write
    My heart’s deep languor and my soul’s sad tears.’
    Yet why evoke the spectres of black night
    To blot the sunshine of exultant years?
    James Thomson (1834–1882)

    Will not a tiny speck very close to our vision blot out the glory of the world, and leave only a margin by which we see the blot? I know no speck so troublesome as self.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    Either disperse these mists, which blot and fill
    My perspective, still, as they pass:
    Or else remove me hence unto that hill
    Where I shall need no glass.
    Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)
