Famous quotes containing the words mountain and/or group:
“There, on the mountain and the sky,
On all the tragic scene they stare.
One asks for mournful melodies;
Accomplished fingers begin to play.
Their eyes mid many wrinkles, their eyes,
Their ancient, glittering eyes, are gay.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“For me, as a beginning novelist, all other living writers form a control group for whom the world is a placebo.”
