Mount Pleasant Road

Famous quotes containing the words mount, pleasant and/or road:

    A land of meanness, sophistry and mist.
    Each breeze from foggy mount and marshy plain
    Dilutes with drivel every drizzly brain.

    I am going to my own hearthstone,
    Bosom’d in yon green hills alone—
    A secret nook in a pleasant land,
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The road to wisdom?—Well, it’s plain
    and simple to express:
    Err
    and err
    and err again
    but less
    and less
    and less.
    Piet Hein (b. 1905)
