Famous quotes containing the word passes:
“Not only do our wives need support, but our children need our deep involvement in their lives. If this period [the early years] of primitive needs and primitive caretaking passes without us, it is lost forever. We can be involved in other ways, but never again on this profoundly intimate level.”
—Augustus Y. Napier (20th century)
“His moving impulse is no flabby yearning to teach, to expound, to make simple; it is that obscure inner necessity of which Conrad tells us, the irresistible creative passion of a genuine artist, standing spell-bound before the impenetrable enigma that is life, enamoured by the strange beauty that plays over its sordidness, challenged to a wondering and half-terrified sort of representation of what passes understanding.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“Even in civilized communities, the embryo man passes through the hunter stage of development.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
