Passes Beneath

Famous quotes containing the words passes and/or beneath:

    A faithful lover is a character greatly out of date, and rarely now used but to adorn some romantic novel, or for a flourish on the stage. He passes now for a man of little merit, or one who knows nothing of the world.
    Anonymous, U.S. women’s magazine contributor. Weekly Visitor or Ladies Miscellany, p. 20 (April 1803)

    When worse may yet befall, there’s room for prayer,
    But when our fortune’s at its lowest ebb,
    We trample fear beneath our feet, and live
    Without a fear of evil yet to come.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
