High Earth

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or earth:

    The beauty of Israel is slain upon thy high places how are the
    mighty fallen!
    Tell it not in Gath, publish it not in the streets of Askelon;
    Bible: Hebrew Second Samuel (l. I, 19–20)

    The earth is not earth but a stone,
    Not the mother that held men as they fell
    But stone, but like a stone, no: not
    The mother, but an oppressor, but like
    An oppressor that grudges them their death,
    As it grudges the living that they live.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
