Passing

Famous quotes containing the word passing:

    The unpleasant events you are passing from will not have been profitless to you.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    It is the blankness that follows gaiety, and Everyman must depart
    Out there into stranded night, for his destiny
    Is to return unfruitful out of the lightness
    That passing time evokes.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    I not deny
    The jury, passing on the prisoner’s life,
    May in the sworn twelve have a thief or two
    Guiltier than him they try. What’s open made to justice,
    That justice seizes.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
