Passed Herbert

Famous quotes containing the words passed and/or herbert:

“We got our new rifled muskets this morning. They are mostly old muskets, many of them used, altered from flint-lock to percussion ... but the power of the gun was fully as great as represented. The ball at one-fourth mile passed through the largest rails; at one-half mile almost the same.... I think it an excellent arm.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

“Inconstancy no sin will prove
If we consider that we love
But the same beauty in another face,
Like the same body in another place.”
—Edward Herbert (1583–1648)
