Passed National Security

Famous quotes containing the words passed, national and/or security:

    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 religion of England is part of good-breeding. When you see on the continent the well-dressed Englishman come into his ambassador’s chapel and put his face for silent prayer into his smooth-brushed hat, you cannot help feeling how much national pride prays with him, and the religion of a gentleman.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    To have in general but little feeling, seems to be the only security against feeling too much on any particular occasion.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
