Longs Peak Council

Famous quotes containing the words longs, peak and/or council:

    A Mother’s hardest to forgive.
    Life is the fruit she longs to hand you,
    Ripe on a plate. And while you live,
    Relentlessly she understands you.
    Phyllis McGinley (1905–1978)

    In all things I would have the island of a man inviolate. Let us sit apart as the gods, talking from peak to peak all round Olympus. No degree of affection need invade this religion.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    There by some wrinkled stones round a leafless tree
    With beards askew, their eyes dull and wild
    Twelve ragged men, the council of charity
    Wandering the face of the earth a fatherless child....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
