In the country of the blind the one-eyed man is lucky to escape with his life.
Celia Green
In the country of the blind, who are not as unobservant as they look, the one-eyed is not king, he is spectator.
Clifford Geertz
Faced with problems and disappointments, many people will try to escape from their responsibility: escape in selfishness, escape in sexual pleasure, escape in drugs, escape in violence, escape in indifference and cynical attitudes. But today, I propose to you the option of love, which is the opposite of escape.
John Paul II (Pope)
Who is king in the world of the blind when there isn't even a one eyed man?
John Kenneth Galbraith
I say, of the Congress, then, this — that its aims are mistaken, that the spirit in which it proceeds towards their accomplishment is not a spirit of sincerity and whole-heartedness, and that the methods it has chosen are not the right methods, and the leaders in whom it trusts, not the right sort of men to be leaders; — in brief, that we are at present the blind led, if not by the blind, at any rate by the one-eyed.
Sri Aurobindo
In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man will poke out his eye to fit in. (12 December 2010)
