White Pass Route

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

    “Retreat was out of hope,—
    Behind, a sealed route,

    And God at every gate.”

    “Along the garden-wall the bees
    With hairy bellies pass between
    The staminate and pistillate,
    Blest office of the epicene.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “no arranged terror: no forcing of image, plan,
    or thought:
    no propaganda, no humbling of reality to precept:
    terror pervades but is not arranged, all possibilities
    of escape open: no route shut,”
    —Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)
