Famous quotes containing the words kill and/or blind:
“America is the world’s living myth. There’s no sense of wrong when you kill an American or blame America for some local disaster. This is our function, to be character types, to embody recurring themes that people can use to comfort themselves, justify themselves and so on. We’re here to accommodate. Whatever people need, we provide. A myth is a useful thing.”
—Don Delillo (b. 1926)
“A living man is blind and drinks his drop.
What matter if the ditches are impure?
What matter if I live it all once more?”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
