Jefferson Hills

Famous quotes containing the words jefferson and/or hills:

    I have been thinking this half hour how to begin my letter and cannot for my soul make it out. I wish to the Lord one could write a letter without any beginning for I am sure it allways puzzles me more than all the rest of it.
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    He told of the Magnolia, spread
    High as a cloud, high over head!
    The Cypress and her spire;
    MOf flowers that with one scarlet gleam
    Cover a hundred leagues, and seem
    To set the hills on fire.
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
