Famous quotes containing the word blown:
“I climb to the tower-top and lean upon broken stone,
A mist that is like blown snow is sweeping over all,
Valley, river, and elms, under the light of a moon
That seems unlike itself, that seems unchangeable,
A glittering sword out of the east.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
“They change, and we, who pass like foam,
Like dust blown through the streets of Rome,
Change ever, too; we have no home,”
