High Rises

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or rises:

    They talk about their Pilgrim blood,
    Their birthright high and holy!
    A mountain-stream that ends in mud
    Methinks is melancholy.
    James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)

    It makes so little difference, at so much more
    Than seventy, where one looks, one has been there before.
    Wood-smoke rises through trees, is caught in an upper flow
    Of air and whirled away. But it has been often so.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
