Passes Beneath

Famous quotes containing the words passes and/or beneath:

“Disregard for the consequences and for right and wrong nowadays passes as energy.”

“Boy, I hate their empty shows,
Persian garlands I detest,
Bring me not the late-blown rose
Lingering after all the rest:
Plainer myrtle pleases me
Thus outstretched beneath my vine,
Myrtle more becoming thee,
Waiting with thy master’s wine.”
—Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8)
