White Pass Route

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

    “... white people, like black ones, are victims of a racist society. They are products of their time and place.”
    —Shirley Chisholm (b. 1924)

    “You British plundered half the world for your own profit. Let’s not pass it off as the Age of Enlightenment.”
    —Paddy Chayefsky (1923–1981)

    “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)
