Famous quotes containing the word blown:
“It is only when we speak what is right that we stand a chance at night of being blown to bits in our homes. Can we call this a free country, when I am afraid to go to sleep in my own home in Mississippi?... I might not live two hours after I get back home, but I want to be a part of setting the Negro free in Mississippi.”
—Fannie Lou Hamer (1917–1977)
“Was ever feather so lightly blown to and fro as this multitude?”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“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)
