Passed

Famous quotes containing the word passed:

“And we passed to the end of a vista,
But were stopped by the door of a tomb—
By the door of a legended tomb;
And I said—” What is written, sweet sister,
On the door of this legended tomb?”
She replied—”Ulalume—Ulalume!—
‘Tis the vault of thy lost Ulalume!””
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

“The Eastern steamboat passed us with music and a cheer, as if they were going to a ball, when they might be going to—Davy’s locker.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“There are no signposts in the sky to show a man has passed that way before. There are no channels marked. The flier breaks each second into new uncharted seas.”
—Anne Morrow Lindbergh (b. 1906)
