Famous quotes containing the words pass and/or play:

    “As I pass down the corridor
    past desperate faces at each cell,
    your eyes and my eyes may meet.
    You will be dark, unkempt,
    but I pray for one glimpse of your face
    why do I want this?”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “Won’t you play a simple melody
    Like my mother sang to me—
    One with good old fashioned harmony.
    Play a simple melody.”
    —Irving Berlin (1888–1989)
