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)

“That land is like an Eagle, whose young gaze
Feeds on the noontide beam, whose golden plume
Floats moveless on the storm, and in the blaze
Of sunrise gleams when Earth is wrapped in gloom;
An epitaph of glory for the tomb
Of murdered Europe may thy fame be made,
Great People! as the sands shalt thou become;
Thy growth is swift as morn, when night must fade;
The multitudinous Earth shall sleep beneath thy shade.”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
