Day Fast Pass

Famous quotes containing the words day, fast and/or pass:

“Dear, why should you command me to my rest,
When now the night doth summon all to sleep?
Methinks this time becometh lovers best;
Night was ordained together friends to keep.
How happy are all other living things,
Which though the day disjoin by several flight,
The quiet evening yet together brings,
And each returns unto his love at night.”
—Michael Drayton (1563–1631)

“When I am here, I do not fast on the Sabbath; when I am in Rome, I fast on the Sabbath.”
—Ambrose (c. 333–397)

“From man’s blood-sodden heart are sprung
Those branches of the night and day
Where the gaudy moon is hung.
What’s the meaning of all song?
“Let all things pass away.””
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
