Some bands blow it before they even play. The most important moment of any show is when a band walks out with the red amp lights glowing, the flashlight that shows each performer the way to his spot on the stage. It’s crucial not to blow it.

I also taught myself how to blow glass using a propane torch from the hardware store and managed to make some elementary chemistry plumbing such as tees and small glass bulbs.
Robert B. Laughlin
Who needs a candle snuffer? You have air to blow out a candle. I don’t need a snuffer to put it out.
Georgia Toffolo
Cena is awesome on the mic. When it comes to wrestling in the ring and the technical aspect, I feel as if I blow him away. I feel like I’m more of an athlete.
Randy Orton
If you wish in this world to advance your merits you’re bound to enhance; You must stir it and stump it, and blow your own trumpet, Or, trust me, you haven’t a chance.
William Gilbert
A lot of people want to blow up as a producer, but what helps you blow up as a producer is an artist that matches well with your music. When that artist gets popular and blowing up, and people start knowing them, that’s when they start knowing you.
Zaytoven
I’m ashamed to say this, but I watched every episode of ‘Starsky and Hutch’ as a kid. I loved that show, but now I think it’s stupid – they’d have a car chase for no reason, then Paul Michael Glaser would shoot the car and it would blow up.
Shane Black
I love hip hop music and would do anything to help the culture blow up in China because it’s been so underground. I just want people know how good this culture is, how good the music is, and how it can change your life.
Kris Wu
When not working, I use a lot of treatments; from ancient casero – honey, avocado, stuff like that – other times, I buy ones you leave on for a few minutes. I don’t blow dry my hair ever unless for work; I’d rather go for the natural look.
Kate del Castillo
That’s what I’m interested in doing: making stuff that’s going to blow kids’ minds for the first time.
Pendleton Ward
If you look back to the most spectacular blow ups in history, you can always tie them to a couple things: They were extraordinary complicated strategies that maybe even the practitioners themselves didn’t understand, and they were overleveraged.
James O’Shaughnessy
I think we have a lot in common with classical composers of the 19th century, although I’m not claiming to have their intelligence. They wanted to create a musical explosion, to blow the crowd away.
Matt Bellamy
I shall go the way of the open sea, to the lands I knew before you came, and the cool ocean breezes shall blow from me the memory of your name.
Adela Florence Nicolson
Headlines are so great in a sense that they can take a

Headlines are so great in a sense that they can take a little bit from an article completely out of context and blow it into something it’s not. Some people really only read headlines.
Kristin Cavallari
Sometimes the beauty is easy. Sometimes you don’t have to try at all. Sometimes you can hear the wind blow in a handshake. Sometimes there’s poetry written right on the bathroom wall.
Ani DiFranco
In England, the referee doesn’t blow his whistle.
Alexandre Lacazette
There is no safe blow to the head, especially for a child.
Bennet Omalu
Running with others can help get you out when you might otherwise blow it off.
Frank Shorter
I meet people to like them, but some are onions to peel and others just blow up like a bomb!
Sonja Morgan
If we don’t blow ourselves up, this is going to be a really wonderful world.
Martin Cooper
People have all these preconceptions about me. Whereas if you look at the roles, Henry Hill was the nicest guy in ‘Goodfellas!’ I was a nice guy too in the comedy ‘Heartbreakers.’ And I was a really sweet father to Johnny Depp in ‘Blow!’
Ray Liotta
Yes, there will be challenges, and things will blow up in your face, but learning experiences are different from wasting your life pushing a boulder up a hill.
Jen Sincero
Over the years, I’ve learned that you can have fun with the fabrics and other elements, but if it’s not tailored right, you’ll blow it.
James Marsden
I don’t work with an artist to try to blow up, but to see if the music can be medicine, if it can be therapeutic and serve a bigger purpose.
Kirk Franklin
Bad company is like a nail driven into a post, which, after the first and second blow, may be drawn out with little difficulty; but being once driven up to the head, the pincers cannot take hold to draw it out, but which can only be done by the destruction of the wood.
Saint Augustine
You can have the best technology, but if you have an inside job of a worker that has access to the plane that’s corrupted or bribed or radicalized, they can get a bomb on that aircraft and blow it up.
Michael McCaul
Athletes are still exploited. If they blow out their knee, if they somehow don’t meet the mandates of a coach, they lose their scholarship. They don’t get their degree.
Cory Booker
I went from being a player who had received just a few yellow cards in his career to a red card in a World Cup. It was a devastating moment for me. It was my first game in the World Cup, so I was excited and thankful for the opportunity. Being sent off was a big blow.
Gianfranco Zola
What I really dream of is that somebody would blow everything I’ve done out of the water in a beautiful way, which would clear the way for something better to come along.
Leslie Fiedler
Posh people blow my mind. Apart from empathy, they’re good at everything – true survivalists.
Katherine Ryan
If it’s not a high-concept movie, if you’re not having outer space people come down and blow stuff up, then there’s a pool of 15 to 20 male actors and 10 to 15 female actors. And if you don’t get one of them, you really need to reexamine your budget and the story you’re trying to tell. It’s frustrating.
Ryan Fleck
I would lie in bed at night composing letters to Kennedy and Khrushchev, trying to convince them that they really didn’t want to blow up the world. It seemed so simple to me that we just shouldn’t hurt each other.
Deborah Wiles
‘MythBusters’ sounded like such an incredible opportunity. Where else might I be paid to make robots blow things up?
Grant Imahara
If you are talking about terrorism, you need to sit down and understand what is making these people put dynamite around their waists and blow themselves up.
Lakhdar Brahimi
I feel privileged to have grown up in Germany so it was a heavy blow for me to be portrayed as somebody who isn’t integrated and who doesn’t live his life according to German values.
Ilkay Gundogan
It’s almost embarrassing, but I do have one trick for taking portraits on commission. I carry one of these little bicycle horns in my pocket, and once in a while, when someone is sour-faced or stiff, I blow my horn. It sort of shatters the barriers. It’s silly, but it works.
Elliott Erwitt
When struggling to get out of bed in the morning due to pain and exhaustion, the last thing on the priority list is going to get a blow dry.
Yolanda Hadid
A dunk during the game is just to get everybody pumped up, so everybody can feel like we’re going to win this game or we’re going to blow this team out or whatnot.
Eric Bledsoe
I see myself as an intelligent, sensitive human, with the soul of a clown which forces me to blow it at the most important moments.
Jim Morrison
I was born in the summer, but I hate it because I’m allergic to bug bites. I would go play with my cousins, and then we’d go inside and I’d have mosquito bites everywhere. But mine are different – like, they blow up with puss. It’s really bad.
Tierra Whack
An audience who watches my shows knows who I am, knows that right when they think I’m going to make a joke, I’m going to blow something up, or during the worst peril, I’m going to have someone give someone a kiss – it’s just going to happen.
Joss Whedon
People respect you more if you just play and blow something out than if you take the easier road. That’s how we think. You get more respect and people play harder for you. Just play till you blow it. Just play till it goes.
Terry Bradshaw
We all love people who give credit to others for their success. Companies would probably do better with CEOs who didn’t blow their own horn and ask for ridiculous salaries and new yachts every year.
Adora Svitak
The first movie, I was 23; I thought I knew everything, but my ego soon took an irrevocable blow.
James Gray
I think that presidents deserve to be questioned. Maybe

I think that presidents deserve to be questioned. Maybe irreverently, most of the time. Bring ’em down a size. You see a president, ask a question. You have one chance in the barrel. Don’t blow it.
Helen Thomas
This much we know: Journalism is not a precise science. It’s, on its best day, is a crude art. We make mistakes; I make mistakes. With more than 50 years as a journalist, I have at least had the opportunity to blow more stories, make more mistakes than maybe anybody in television.
Dan Rather
I know if I don’t look after myself, I will be talking to you in a couple of years’ time mumbling my words and slurring. It won’t be because I am drunk: it will be the fighting, taking blow after blow to the brain. That scares me. I don’t worry about being killed in the ring; it’s losing my mind that I fear.
Anthony Joshua
I’ve sat looking down into a volcano that could blow at any moment; I’ve helped catch a shark and several rattlesnakes; I let a tarantula walk across my hand, and I ate rat soup.
Alan Alda
We’re not going to go 82-0 and blow everybody out. We are going to be challenged.
Stephen Curry
I can’t live without mousse. When my hair is damp I put it at the roots. When I blow dry my hair it makes it so much bouncier. It gives you shampoo commercial hair and makes your blowout so much better.
Shay Mitchell
For ‘Death Car’ I had three vehicles for the leading lady, because you never know when something is going to go wrong. You can blow a tire or start spinning around and hit a lamppost.
Hal Needham
With the pride of the artist, you must blow against the walls of every power that exists the small trumpet of your defiance.
Norman Mailer
Pope Francis has aimed a blow at what the whole hierarchical system is built on: a graded system with the higher clergy in the skyboxes, the devoted religious in festival seating, as they say of the crowds at rock concerts, and, on the bottom, the laity in standing room only.
Eugene Kennedy
You know you’re getting old when you get that one candle on the cake. It’s like, ‘See if you can blow this out.’
Jerry Seinfeld
There is no question in my mind that a ‘Brexit’ would deal a significant blow to the E.U.’s strength and resilience at exactly the moment when the West is under attack from multiple directions.
David Petraeus
The action stuff is only good if you get the character stuff in there as well. Sometimes that get lost in amongst all the trying to make stuff blow up.
Nicholas Hoult
I really believe that I’m gonna blow up. It’s how I feel.
Lil Tjay
In that first blow to the deaf walls of those who have everything, the blood of our people, our blood, ran generously to wash away injustice. To live, we die. Our dead once again walked the way of truth. Our hope was fertilized with mud and blood.
Subcomandante Marcos
Before you have kids, you can blow up and get mad, then you have kids and they teach you the opposite. You have to be patient when you’re helping – whether it’s with school work or potty training, it’s a whole other level of patience.
Jason McCourty
Let the winds of evidence blow you about as though you are a leaf, with no direction of your own. Beware lest you fight a rearguard retreat against the evidence, grudgingly conceding each foot of ground only when forced, feeling cheated. Surrender to the truth as quickly as you can.
Eliezer Yudkowsky
I was called Kool Dj Kurt Walker… but they wanted tocall me Kurtis Blow.
Kurtis Blow
If anything on the car is going to blow up or fall off, you usually see it happen in the 600. But it’s also survival for the drivers because it’s such a long race and it’s usually hot at Charlotte. It’s hard for drivers to feel good for the whole 400 laps.
Robby Gordon
I didn’t have the ability to blow people off the court, so I needed my legs, my preparation and the ability to think on my feet.
Michael Chang
I have been made redundant before and it is a terrible blow; redundant is a rotten word because it makes you think you are useless.
Billy Connolly
I dare not drink before a gig because I’ll get tired and blow it. So I have to sit drinking tea in a caravan.
John Bonham
It’s great to blow the image that people have of me out of the water.
Hugo Weaving
In Germany, you can play aggressively, but the referee will always blow his whistle, but in England, that’s not the case. That’s better for me.
Granit Xhaka
It is relatively easy… to determine whether or not a blow to a quarterback was deemed excessive or incidental. So I’m discouraged that there have been a number of games that are influenced – not that the outcomes are in question – but a number of games influenced based on the protection of the quarterback.
Troy Aikman
The government is tottering. We must deal it the death blow an any cost. To delay action is the same as death.
Vladimir Lenin
I don’t want to blow my own trumpet but the aim of the game is to hit and not get hit and that is what I am doing.
Anthony Yarde
I constantly deal with being called Shaft, and I vacillate back and forth with people coming up to me about it. But it never ceases to blow me away with the impact that character had on my life and my fans’ lives.
Richard Roundtree
The late brilliant actions in North Carolina, Tennessee, and Arkansas divided and weakened the enemy on the Rappahannock, and the auspicious moment seems to have arrived to strike a great and mortal blow at the Rebellion, and to gain that decisive victory which is due to the country.
Ambrose Burnside
I had a Guru. He was a great saint and most merciful. I served him long – very, very long; still, he would not blow any mantra in my ears. I had a keen desire never to leave him but to stay with him and serve him and at all cost receive some instruction from him.
Sai Baba
There’s no reason your outdoor furniture should look like cheap plastic that will blow over or break in two seconds.
Jonathan Scott
Everybody knows when you’ve got a role in a Spike Lee movie, you’re gonna blow up. But I happen to be the only person who’s had the lead in the two Spike Lee movies nobody saw.
Anthony Mackie
I feel like I delivered a blow, an unfortunate blow to

I feel like I delivered a blow, an unfortunate blow to a profession that not only did I personally love doing but that I value for society.
Jayson Blair
I watched people blow up after the XXL cover, and I watched people drown – you know what I’m saying? And that’s not what I’m trying to do.
Denzel Curry
Strange things blow in through my window on the wings of the night wind and I don’t worry about my destiny.
Carl Sandburg
Once, when a British Prime Minister sneezed, men half a world away would blow their noses. Now when a British Prime Minister sneezes nobody else will even say ‘Bless You’.
Bernard Levin
I really enjoyed hanging out with some of the teachers. This one chemistry teacher, she liked hanging out. I liked making explosives. We would stay after school and blow things up.
Maya Lin
My hair is naturally curly, and in the 80’s, even though I experimented with different lengths, I generally wore it curly. Since then, I’ve learned how to use a blow dryer and flat iron.
Susanna Hoffs
I haven’t been as wild with my money as somebody like me might have been. I’ve been very safe, very conservative with investments. I don’t blow money. I don’t have a ton of houses. I know things can go away. I’ve already had that experience.
Jim Carrey
As we have heard, the end of al-Zarqawi is a significant blow to al-Qaida operations in Iraq. It is another clear indication of the progress we are making.
Kit Bond
When you become an instrument in God’s hands as He transfers someone from the realm of darkness into the kingdom of His Son, you make a difference in the person’s eternal destiny. Not only that, but Satan also receives a devastating blow.
Charles Stanley
So many women keep their anger inside and let it build until they explode and then people blow them off again.
Rosalind Wiseman
So much of performing is a mind game. You’re memorizing thousands of notes, and if you start thinking about it in the wrong way, everything can blow up in your face.
Joshua Bell
That’s what you work all season for, to get into the playoff games, and you don’t want to blow it.
Ray Nitschke
My friends, whoever has had experience of evils knows how whenever a flood of ills comes upon mortals, a man fears everything; but whenever a divine force cheers on our voyage, then we believe that the same fate will always blow fair.
Aeschylus
I used to be into Bjork and PJ Harvey, and they used to blow my mind. But there hasn’t been a pop star blowing anybody’s mind.
Yolandi Visser
The dangers of an Afghan collapse are many: Afghan deaths, a loss of American prestige, a loss of NATO prestige, a moral blow to U.S. troops and veterans, a Taliban resurgence, huge setbacks for women, and greater power for Pakistan and Pakistani extremists.
Richard Engel
In my experience on ‘New York Undercover,’ where I played a dad, I was 26 years old, and I didn’t have kids then. And at that time, it would blow me away that people said they became a better parent because of watching my role on that TV show.
Malik Yoba
I think you have to take everything that looks like a blow and turn it into a triumph. This is where my energy comes from: I just won’t be licked.
Beverly Sills
But when I came back into the city for the first time last November, I thought every truck, every building was going to blow up. It has truly changed me something fierce.
Lanford Wilson
I’ve had people hang around me because I’m Bruce Lee’s daughter, and it’s kind of a blow. You start to ask yourself, ‘Who am I?’, ‘What’s valuable about me?’, ‘Is what’s valuable about me that I’m Bruce Lee’s daughter?’
Shannon Lee
When I start winning big tournaments I don’t think I’ll just win tournaments, I think I’ll blow them away.
Adrian Lewis
Never in a million years did I think the sport of poker would blow up the way it did.
Chris Moneymaker
Look at a stone cutter hammering away at his rock, perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred-and-first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not the last blow that did it, but all that had gone before.
Jacob Riis
Now and again, an actor will blow my mind by doing something really unexpected, like Mickey Rourke or Christopher Walken – you have absolutely no idea what they’re going to do, which is really thrilling to watch.
Jamie Dornan
There’s times I blow my gasket. One thing I learned is I don’t hold any grudges.
Barry Trotz
The ship’s transporters – which let the crew ‘beam’ from place to place – really came out of a production need. I realized with this huge spaceship, I would blow the whole budget of the show just in landing the thing on a planet.
Gene Roddenberry
I always fall for the guy that, like, has to blow me off because he needs to go do something with his dog. I love those kind of guys.
Jennifer Coolidge
Sometimes, I’m driving along in my car, and a song from my high-school years comes on the radio: Springsteen’s ‘Thunder Road.’ Just the opening few chords make me want to roll down the window and let the wind blow back my hair.
Dani Shapiro
If he wants to blow his head off, let him. I don’t give a damn about Jim Bakker.
Jessica Hahn
I had to live this long, have the experiences I’ve had, to create what I do. I knew I wanted to write for years, but I had to be ready so I wouldn’t blow it. The move to Maine was the final step.
Terry Goodkind
I have experienced a murderer among my friends. Many, many years ago. At close range I have seen the impact of it. I knew the victim, I went to the funeral, I have been to the house, to the specific room where the killing took place, and I was stunned by it. It’s such a blow.
Karin Fossum
When I got my headshots done, there was this woman screaming at me to blow my lips out. She kept saying, ‘You want to be like Scarlett Johansson, don’t you?’ In the shot, my eyes are popping out; I look terrified. I realised I’d rather not get a job than go through pain to be something I’m not.
Jessie Cave
It was quite a blow to have my perfect image of my fath

It was quite a blow to have my perfect image of my father shattered, but that’s something we all face before we come to full adulthood.
Greg Iles
One of the things that I love about crime novels is that you can turn the volume all the way up. If I can make somebody blow their subway stop, I win.
Marcus Sakey
The Rat Pack was the piece that really kicked me out of that little funk that I was in and then Ted called me up and asked me if I wanted to be the dad in Blow.
Ray Liotta
Rampage Jackson came to the UFC with a brain. He came to the UFC with a huge following from being in Asia with Pride. He was a personality before he came to the UFC. You don’t see them putting marketing money behind him to blow him up.
Tyron Woodley
I don’t shout from the rooftops or blow my own trumpet. But I take a lot of satisfaction from the players and staff at clubs who recognise what I’ve done.
Steve Clarke
The force of the blow depends on the resistance. It is sometimes better not to struggle against temptation. Either fly or yield at once.
F. H. Bradley
The aspiring tyrants of today have not forgotten the lesson of 1933: that acts of terror – real or fake, provoked or accidental – can provide the occasion to deal a death blow to democracy.
Timothy D. Snyder
All my tattoos except my first were not planned. I would just go into the shop late at night with friends and ask for something on the spot. My first is my parents’ wedding date. I thought it would soften the blow of getting a tattoo.
Hailey Baldwin
The long-established and noble rule of Law, one of the greatest products of the character and tradition of British history, has suffered a deadly blow. Blackmail has become respectable.
Robert Menzies
Just blow in it and sound bad for about a year and then make it sound a little bit better, and you get a little band together, and then you get a few jobs. You take four guys that sound half bad, but if they’re 25 percent each, they can give 100 percent, you know?
Quincy Jones
Making America great again, as if to keep the world out. The world and all its fresh ideas and everything that’s new and exhilarating and the wind of change that should blow through the world – block it out, wall ourselves up. That for me goes with a small vocabulary. A narrow, confining vocabulary.
Howard Jacobson
All I could think about was, ‘I just wanna blow him away. I wanna make him proud, because I really wanna sign with Timbaland and spend the rest of my career making music with Tim.’
Brandy Norwood
We live in America where each and every person has the equal opportunity to take their iPhone or a smartphone and create something and put it online and have the equal ability to blow up and be successful. It’s a tool I hope we inspire tons of people to pick up and go after their dreams.
Todrick Hall
It was a terrible blow that was dealt when I was fired from ‘Saturday Night Live’, but I have to say that a few doors opened right away. Movie roles started to roll in, and pretty soon, I was over it.
Joan Cusack
For one human like me who comes from a small town to blow up like that and sell out venues, its would be weird man.
Adore Delano
The no-secrets era of social media makes one consider the built-in risk factor of nominating high-testosterone men to positions of power at all. Everyone is under too much scrutiny now to take a chance on candidates who suddenly blow up into a comic meme, a punchline, a ribald hashtag.
Tina Brown
Instead of arguing about whether we’re allowed to describe Muslim terrorists as ‘Muslim terrorists,’ why don’t we argue about whether it’s a good idea to be letting in so many immigrants who then blow up the Boston Marathon?
Ann Coulter
Those who had talked to us about national pride and Christian brotherly love were the first to come to terms or actively collaborate with the Germans. It was an immense blow to my entire intellectual and emotional existence.
Mikis Theodorakis
Football is more disputed in England than it is in Italy. Every match is a very hard match because the referee doesn’t blow his whistle as much as in Italy, and every team plays against each other like it is a final.
Philippe Coutinho
I’m big on having a blistering pace. That’s one of the hallmarks of what I do, and that’s not easy. I never blow up cars and things like that, so it’s something else that keeps the suspense flowing. I try not to write a chapter that isn’t going to turn on the movie projector in your head.
James Patterson
A CCR Headcleaner show will blow your mind.
Ty Segall
When we go out and play the teams that we need to beat that aren’t near our level, then we’ve got to go out there and blow them out.
Jamal Murray
I’m an actor. I hate to blow everyone’s illusions.
Stephen Colbert
One thing I tend to do is ask actors tons and tons of questions to try to get at what they’re thinking but also to expose to them whatever box they’ve placed their characters in – to blow up that box so the journey can begin.
George C. Wolfe
When I was a teenager, it was so exciting to go to an event, because I would get a blow dry. Usually, my mom wouldn’t even let us use a conditioner because she thought it was bad for the hair.
Janhvi Kapoor
Sometimes shooting on a smaller scale, as long as things don’t blow out of proportion, is very liberating.
Daniel Craig
In my songs, I’m not saying something that’s never been said before. The have lyrics aren’t going to blow people away. It’s the emotion and the melody that drive it home.
Bruno Mars
There’s a difference between criminals and crooks. Crooks steal. Criminals blow some guy’s brains out. I’m a crook.
Ronald Biggs
Environmentalists, members of the Obama administration and government officials in several states see significant potential for offshore wind energy, given that winds over the ocean usually blow stronger and more steadily than those on land.
Tatiana Schlossberg
Yes, I have done a few things like always, worked immensely hard, always respected people, admired good work, and never let success blow my top off; probably this has worked in my favour.
Guru Randhawa
In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place, and in the sky, The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard among the guns below.
John McCrae
There's some quality you get when you're not totally co

There’s some quality you get when you’re not totally comfortable. When you’re not doing what you’re used to, you could completely fall on your face. You could completely blow it.
Beck
So the first season about halfway through he just sort of put us together and then broke us up all within one episode. One of the ideas is to have us do that once a year – to have everything blow up in our faces and not work out.
Sarah Chalke
One said of suicide, As long as one has brains one should not blow them out. And another answered, But when one has ceased to have them, too often one cannot.
F. H. Bradley
When you’re wounded and left on Afghanistan’s plains, and the women come out to cut up what remains, jest roll to your rifle and blow out your brains and go to your gawd like a soldier.
Rudyard Kipling
Paddy Considine is a great friend of mine, and he is a natural actor because he is an artist, and I’m not an artist. If I ever blow my own trumpet, it’s as a craftsman.
Eddie Marsan
In the past, a blow to the international system’s strongest power would have been welcomed by its rivals. In the wake of September 11, however, every significant government in the world declared its support for the United States.
Michael Mandelbaum
I really appreciate when someone can blow me away with live acoustic blues.
Johnny Winter
I have a theory about the human mind. A brain is a lot like a computer. It will only take so many facts, and then it will go on overload and blow up.
Erma Bombeck
Constructive criticism is about finding something good and positive to soften the blow to the real critique of what really went on.
Paula Abdul
I always have the best story at the party. Anyone telling a story at a party is like, ‘No, no, you’ve got to listen to my story!’ I’m like, ‘Step aside, everybody. I’m going to blow the doors off this place.’
Mike Birbiglia
For me, staying ready has always been, like, the preparations: do the behind-the-scenes or do what you think that’s not sexy that nobody will see, but when they do see it, it’s like, ‘Oh, snap… what she’s doing on her own, we’ll add to that, and it’ll blow up.’
Yvonne Orji
We have also arranged things so that almost no one understands science and technology. This is a prescription for disaster. We might get away with it for a while, but sooner or later this combustible mixture of ignorance and power is going to blow up in our faces.
Carl Sagan
Why blow money on a tour bus when you could get your mom a nice dress?
Brian Fallon
What we have learned is that Roland-Jones is a very promising prospect. Because of the way he bowls, he will not blow batsmen away, but is more likely to take wickets through accuracy and building pressure.
Jonathan Agnew
The moment I decided to blow the whistle on a lot of the corruption going on in the White House, there are protections that are afforded to me.
Omarosa Manigault Newman
I had this memory of being with my aunt, who I loved, you know, and watching her blow some bubbles in sunlight, and my heart fluttered when I watched her.
Tom Noddy
A free and prosperous Iraq will be a major blow to the terrorists and their desire to establish a safe haven in Iraq where they can plan and plot attacks.
Scott McClellan
A divided government doesn’t have to be a death blow to foreign policy.
Morgan Ortagus
Senator McConnell has always won in the past because he’s had a bigger blow horn. He’s always had tens of millions of dollars more than his opponent.
Amy McGrath
You can take charge, kick ass, do whatever you have to do and it’s okay. You can blow people up. These are things that are okay for cartoon characters to do.
Joan Severance
You can dominate a game if you dominate on the line… We’re just going to have to go out there and work hard and blow people off the ball, and let our runners do what they do best.
Miles Davis
In professional work – certainly in the arts and graphics – 99% of people have zero courage. They blow with the wind.
George Lois
We can’t stop a baby in Africa from starving to death… but we can afford enough technology and weaponry to blow the world up a million times over.
Paul Weller
Like the winds that we come we know not whence and blow whither soever they list, the forces of society are derived from an obscure and distant origin. They arise before the date of philosophy, from the instincts, not the speculations of men.
Adam Ferguson
Obviously, we have a political season in the United States, and there’s always different winds that blow on that.
Bill Haslam
When I blow the head off a glass of Guinness or eat a slice of white bread, there are so many bubbles!
Tom Noddy
Roadside bombs that Iran sent to Iraq to blow up over 500 American soldiers cost a lot less than $1.7 billion.
Tom Cotton
I could blow up from making a beat or I could blow up from making a song.
Trippie Redd
There is a big difference between using V.C. money that you blow and spending your own personal money.
Omar Amanat
The idea of forever is kind of ridiculous, which is unfortunate because it’s kind of a nice thing to say, you know. I think it softens the blow of mortality and having to say goodbye to everything you know and everyone you love and all that kind of thing.
Conor Oberst
A pun does not commonly justify a blow in return. But if a blow were given for such cause, and death ensued, the jury would be judges both of the facts and of the pun, and might, if the latter were of an aggravated character, return a verdict of justifiable homicide.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.
When the human race neglects its weaker members, when t

When the human race neglects its weaker members, when the family neglects its weakest one – it’s the first blow in a suicidal movement. I see the neglect in cities around the country, in poor white children in West Virginia and Virginia and Kentucky – in the big cities, too, for that matter.
Maya Angelou
God as ‘He,’ as a patriarchal thing, is offensive to me. It’s standard fare for America, ‘He, He, He.’ Every time I hear that it’s like another blow against females. It’s very radical talk at this point for females to say this kind of stuff, but nationwide I still hear females referring to God as ‘He.’
Patty Griffin
For me, defeating Elizabeth Warren in Massachusetts is driving a bigger blow to these institutions of power right in the belly of the beast.

The Cyprus Financial Crisis was a devastating blow to Cypriots and halted their banking system. Banks closed for two weeks to prevent a banking panic. When they reopened, capital controls were placed on the people’s money, and customers were met by armed guards at the branches.
Perianne Boring
We don’t always agree on stuff, but when it’s time to blow the whistle and start the game, we’re not still debating.
Rick Wagoner
I know I’m going to blow one day. My life is doomed the way it is. I have no future.
Mike Tyson
At any time, somebody can blow themselves up and take Americans with them. They can blow up an airplane; they can crash an airplane. That’s something we have to worry about every day – we spend 40 billion dollars yearly on homeland security. That has nothing to do with Crusades or any of that other nonsense.
John Fleming
Most people can’t understand how others can blow their noses differently than they do.
Ivan Turgenev
I’m a person that doesn’t have that many goals or plans. I feel like I’m the wind and I blow through life; it’s whatever comes to me. I very much respect nature. Whatever happens to me, I’m happy and I embrace it.
Bai Ling
You’ve just got to deliver the first blow. In football, you’re going to get hit. Don’t let someone deliver the hit to you. You’ve got to deliver the hit to them.
Derrick Henry
An optimist may see a light where there is none, but why must the pessimist always run to blow it out?
Rene Descartes
In dealing with athletes or celebrities or people in general, I think there’s a tendency to get on their pedestal or their platform and just kind of blow the ink.
Jay Williams
I was trying to get an audition for ‘Walker, Texas Ranger’ and they wouldn’t see me. And I was crestfallen, because I really needed money. And to be told you’re not good enough to be seen by ‘Walker, Texas Ranger’ is a tough blow.
Adam Scott
When I first started to blow up, everybody thought I was rich. Everybody started asking for stuff. My friends started becoming fans. Even my teachers began to act like fans.
YBN Nahmir
My mother passed in 2002. That was a blow like no other blow.
Anthony Ray Hinton
We need to be diligent in our neighborhoods, in America to keep an eye out for wherever there might be some kind of a terrorist cell that is festering that could potentially blow up.
Neil Bush
Ever since we were little, we were so on fire for our dreams. We never let anyone blow our flames out.
Kelly Rowland
I had a very distant relationship with my father. It was always just me and my mother. It was a shattering blow when she died. I was 16.
Joan Lingard
I hate to blow my own horn, but I gave a lot of people fits.
Bo Jackson
Iraq is the central battleground in the war on terror. The terrorists certainly know what is at stake, which is why they are pulling out all the stops to derail our efforts there. They know that a free and democratic Iraq is a serious blow to their interests.
Elizabeth Dole
Missing out on ‘Monty Python’ was a real blow at the time. I sometimes wonder how things would have been different if I had been invited to join ‘Monty Python,’ but as the saying goes, one door closes, another opens.
David Jason
‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ will blow people away.
