White Pass Route

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

    “the white eyes writhing in his face,
    His hanging face, like a devil’s sick of sin;
    If you could hear, at every jolt, the blood
    Come gargling from the froth-corrupted lungs,
    Obscene as cancer,”
    —Wilfred Owen (1893–1918)

    “My trance frightens them,
    breaks the dance,
    empties the market-place;
    if I but pass they fall
    back, frantically.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “In the mountains the shortest route is from peak to peak, but for that you must have long legs. Aphorisms should be peaks: and those to whom they are spoken should be big and tall of stature.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
