Dark Blue Mountain

Famous quotes containing the words dark, blue and/or mountain:

    In dark places and dungeons the preacher’s words might perhaps strike root and grow, but not in broad daylight in any part of the world that I know.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    ... wounding God with his blue face,
    his tyranny, his absolute kingdom,
    with my aphrodisiac.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    The most stupendous scenery ceases to be sublime when it becomes distinct, or in other words limited, and the imagination is no longer encouraged to exaggerate it. The actual height and breadth of a mountain or a waterfall are always ridiculously small; they are the imagined only that content us.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
