White Pass Route

Famous quotes containing the words white, pass and/or route:

    “Yet love enters my blood like an I.V.,
    dripping in its little white moments.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Ovid lies here, the poet, skilled in love’s gentle sport;
    By his own talents he worked his undoing.
    Oh, you who pass by, if ever you have loved,
    Think it not a burden to wish him calm repose.”
    —Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    “A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.”
    —Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
