Day Fast Pass

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

    Good manners, Madam, are had these days not
    For your asking, nor mine, nor what-we-used-to-be’s.
    The day is a loud grenade that bursts a smile
    Of serious weeds in a comic lily plot....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    Who liveth by the ragged pine
    Foundeth a heroic line;
    Who liveth in the palace hall
    Waneth fast and spendeth all.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    if she were lacking all grace
    they’d pass her in silence:
    so it’s not only to say she’s
    a warm hole.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
