Famous quotes containing the words south, pass and/or city:

“There are few things on which we can pass a sincere judgement, because there are few things in which we have not, in one way or another, a particular interest.”

“The City is of Night; perchance of Death,
But certainly of Night; for never there
Can come the lucid morning’s fragrant breath
After the dewy dawning’s cold grey air;”
