Famous quotes containing the word passes:
“Nature is a temple where living pillars
Sometimes emit confused words;
Man passes through forests of symbols
Which observe him with familiar looks.”
—Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
“A faithful lover is a character greatly out of date, and rarely now used but to adorn some romantic novel, or for a flourish on the stage. He passes now for a man of little merit, or one who knows nothing of the world.”
—Anonymous, U.S. women’s magazine contributor. Weekly Visitor or Ladies Miscellany, p. 20 (April 1803)
“we are the circle of the crazy ladies
who sit in the lounge of the mental house
and smile at the smiling woman
who passes us each a bell,”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
