What is pass through?

Famous quotes containing the word pass:

    if she were lacking all grace
    they’d pass her in silence:
    so it’s not only to say she’s
    a warm hole.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    I never can pass by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York without thinking of it not as a gallery of living portraits but as a cemetery of tax-deductible wealth.
    Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
