White Pass Route

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

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

    “As I pass down the corridor
    past desperate faces at each cell,
    your eyes and my eyes may meet.
    You will be dark, unkempt,
    but I pray for one glimpse of your face
    why do I want this?”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “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)
