Security Council Passes

Famous quotes containing the words security, council and/or passes:

    It is hard for those who have never known persecution,
    And who have never known a Christian,
    To believe these tales of Christian persecution.
    It is hard for those who live near a Bank
    To doubt the security of their money.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    There by some wrinkled stones round a leafless tree
    With beards askew, their eyes dull and wild
    Twelve ragged men, the council of charity
    Wandering the face of the earth a fatherless child....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    She passes the houses which humbly crowd outside,
    The gasworks and at last the heavy page
    Of death, printed by gravestones in the cemetery.
    Stephen Spender (1909–1995)
