High Cloud

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or cloud:

    “The high that proved too high, the heroic for earth too hard,
    The passion that left the ground to lose itself in the sky,
    Are music sent up to God by the lover and the bard;
    Enough that he heard it once; we shall hear it by and by.”
    —Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    “The sea was wet as wet could be,
    The sands were dry as dry.
    You could not see a cloud, because
    No cloud was in the sky:
    No birds were flying overhead—
    There were no birds to fly.”
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
