Passed Safely

Famous quotes containing the words passed and/or safely:

    Thy early smile has stayed my walk;
    But midst the gorgeous blooms of May,
    I passed thee on thy humble stalk.
    William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    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)
