Climbing Skill

Famous quotes containing the words climbing and/or skill:

    ... climbing the primordial climb,

    then sitting here
    holding a basket of fire.

    OUR Latin books in motly row,
    Invite us to our task—
    Gay Horace, stately Cicero:
    Yet there’s one verb, when once we know,
    No higher skill we ask:
    This ranks all other lore above—
    We’ve learned “’Amare’ means ‘to love’!”
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
