    “What would be ugly in a garden constitutes beauty in a mountain.”
    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

    “So motionless, she seemed stone dead—just seemed:
    She was too old for death, too old for life,
    For as if jealous of all living forms
    She had lain there before bivalves began
    To catacomb their shells on western mountains.”
    —Edwin John Pratt (1882–1964)
