Famous quotes containing the words line and/or passing:
“I fear I agree with your friend in not liking all sermons. Some of them, one has to confess, are rubbish: but then I release my attention from the preacher, and go ahead in any line of thought he may have started: and his after-eloquence acts as a kind of accompanimentlike music while one is reading poetry, which often, to me, adds to the effect.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (18321898)
“I not deny
The jury, passing on the prisoners life,
May in the sworn twelve have a thief or two
Guiltier than him they try. Whats open made to justice,
That justice seizes.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
