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

    The white man in the tropics degenerates every day.
    Christina Stead (1902–1983)

    There is hope for the future. When the world is ready for a new and better life all this will some day come to pass in God’s good time.
    Earl Felton, and Richard Fleischer. Captain Nemo (James Mason)

    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)
