Passes Beneath

Famous quotes containing the words passes and/or beneath:

    Nature is a temple where living pillars
    Sometimes emit confused words;
    Man passes through forests of symbols
    Which observe him with familiar looks.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    It especially helps if you know that we’re all faking our adulthood—even your parents and their parents. Beneath these adult trappings—in our president, in our parents, in you and me—lurk the emotions of a child. If we know that only about ourselves, we become infantile; if we understand that about everybody, then we have nothing to be ashamed of—unless, of course, we go around acting like a child and expecting everyone else to act like grownups.
    Frank Pittman (20th century)
