White Pass Route

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

    “At middle night great cats with silver claws,
    Bodies of shadow and blind eyes like pearls,
    Came up out of the hole, and red-eared hounds
    With long white bodies came out of the air
    Suddenly, and ran at them and harried them.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Do you remember you shot a seagull? A man came by chance, saw it and destroyed it, just to pass the time.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    “By a route obscure and lonely,
    Haunted by ill angels only,
    Where an eidolon, named Night,
    On a black throne reigns upright,
    I have reached these lands but newly
    From an ultimate dim Thule—
    From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime,
    Out of space—out of time.”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
