Passes Beneath

Famous quotes containing the words passes and/or beneath:

    That night was the turning-point in the season. We had gone to bed in summer, and we awoke in autumn; for summer passes into autumn in some imaginable point of time, like the turning of a leaf.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Webster was much possessed by death
    And saw the skull beneath the skin;
    And breastless creatures under ground
    Leaned backward with a lipless grin.

    Daffodil bulbs instead of balls
    Stared from the sockets of the eyes!
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
