Line Passing

Famous quotes containing the words line and/or passing:

    Expediency of literature, reason of literature, lawfulness of writing down a thought, is questioned; much is to say on both sides, and, while the fight waxes hot, thou, dearest scholar, stick to thy foolish task, add a line every hour, and between whiles add a line.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I saw the spires of Oxford
    As I was passing by,
    The grey spires of Oxford
    Against a pearl-grey sky;
    My heart was with the Oxford men
    Who went abroad to die.
    Winifred M. Letts (1887–1972)
