Blown

Famous quotes containing the word blown:

    I, too, await
    The hour of thy great wind of love and hate.
    When shall the stars be blown about the sky,
    Like the sparks blown out of a smithy, and die?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    So the gentle poet’s name
    To foreign parts is blown by fame;
    Seek him in his native town,
    He is hidden and unknown.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Everything is being blown away;
    A little horse trots with a letter in its mouth, which is read with eagerness
    As we gallop into the flame.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
