Passing Rate

Famous quotes containing the words passing and/or rate:

Chances, beauty and youth sapped day by day:
Thy life never continueth in one stay.
Is the eye waxen dim, is the dark hair changing to gray
That hath won neither laurel nor bay?”
—Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)

“All of us failed to match our dreams of perfection. So I rate us on the basis of our splendid failure to do the impossible.”
