Famous quotes containing the words free and/or climbing:

    If there be a love pure and free from the admixture of our other passions, it is that which lies hidden in the bottom of our heart, and which we know not ourselves.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

Then you sit down and meditate and wonder which it will be.
    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)
