Blown

Famous quotes containing the word blown:

    We must no longer be children, tossed to and fro and blown about by every wind of doctrine, by people’s trickery, by their craftiness in deceitful scheming.
    Bible: New Testament, Ephesians 4:14.

    The night has been unruly. Where we lay,
    Our chimneys were blown down, and, as they say,
    Lamentings heard i’ th’ air, strange screams of death,
    And prophesying with accents terrible
    Of dire combustion and confused events,
    New-hatched to the woeful time.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    They change, and we, who pass like foam,
    Like dust blown through the streets of Rome,
    Change ever, too; we have no home,
    John Masefield (1878–1967)
