Blown

Famous quotes containing the word blown:

    So the gentle poet’s name
    To foreign parts is blown by fame;
    Seek him in his native town,
    He is hidden and unknown.

    They change, and we, who pass like foam,
    Like dust blown through the streets of Rome,
    Change ever, too; we have no home,
