Drew Brees Passed

Famous quotes containing the words drew and/or passed:

    Desponding Phyllis was endu’d
    With ev’ry Talent of a Prude,
    She trembled when a Man drew near;
    Salute her, and she turn’d her Ear:
    If o’er against her you were plac’d
    She durst not look above your Waist;
    Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)

    In history the great moment is, when the savage is just ceasing to be a savage, with all his hairy Pelasgic strength directed on his opening sense of beauty;—and you have Pericles and Phidias,—and not yet passed over into the Corinthian civility. Everything good in nature and in the world is in that moment of transition, when the swarthy juices still flow plentifully from nature, but their astrigency or acridity is got out by ethics and humanity.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
