Famous quotes containing the words crest and/or hill:
“The history of any nation follows an undulatory course.

—Aldous Huxley (18941963)
“What was dancing to you then?
We went from the high gate away
To a black hill the other side of men
Where one wild stag stared
At the going day.”
—Allen Tate (18991979)
