Bear Paw Mountain

Famous quotes containing the words bear, paw and/or mountain:

    Mountains of Whimseys, heaped in his own Brain,
    Stumbling from thought to thought, falls headlong down
    Into Doubt’s boundless Sea, where like to drown,
    Books bear him up a while, and make him try
    To swim with Bladders of Philosophy,
    John Wilmot, 2d Earl Of Rochester (1647–1680)

    Now Kitty, let’s consider who it was that dreamed it all. This is a serious question, my dear, and you should not go on licking your paw like that—as if Dinah hadn’t washed you this morning! You see, Kitty, it must have been either me or the Red King.
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    The mountain throws a shadow,
    Thin is the moon’s horn;
    What did we remember
    Under the ragged thorn?
    Dread has followed longing,
    And our hearts are torn.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
