White Pass Route

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

    “... the great white city of brotherhood, Washington ...”
    —Christina Stead (1902–1983)

    “He is not to pass for a man of reason who stumbles upon reason by chance—but he who knows it and can judge it and has a true taste for it.”
    —François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    “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)
