Passed Safely

Famous quotes containing the words passed and/or safely:

    Fate then is a name for facts not yet passed under the fire of thought;Mfor causes which are unpenetrated.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    We are willing enough to praise freedom when she is safely tucked away in the past and cannot be a nuisance. In the present, amidst dangers whose outcome we cannot foresee, we get nervous about her, and admit censorship.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
