Lugete, O Veneres Cupidinesque,
Et quantum est hominum venustiorum.
Passer mortuus est meae puellae,
Passer, deliciae meae puellae.
--
Ye Cupids, droop each little head, Nor let your wings with joy be spread: My Lesbia’s favourite bird is dead, Whom dearer than her eyes she loved.

III, l. 1-4Gaius Valerius Catullus

Animae dimidium meae.
Virgil
Hue omnis turba ad ripas effusa ruebat,
Matres atque viri, defunctaque corpora vita
Magnanimum heroum, pueri innuptaeque puellae,
Impositique rogis juvenes ante ora parentum.Virgil
You may think, passer-by, that Fate
Is a pit-fall outside of yourself,
Around which you may walk by the use of foresight
And wisdom.Edgar Lee Masters
Le plus grand défaut de la pénétration n'est pas de n'aller point jusqu'au but, c'est de le passer.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld
All humanity inspires me. Every passer-by is my unconscious sitter; and as strange as it may seem, I really draw folk as I see them. Surely it is not my fault that they fall into certain lines and angles.
Aubrey Beardsley
