Famous quotes containing the words mountain and/or jam:
“What have we achieved in mowing down mountain ranges, harnessing the energy of mighty rivers, or moving whole populations about like chess pieces, if we ourselves remain the same restless, miserable, frustrated creatures we were before? To call such activity progress is utter delusion. We may succeed in altering the face of the earth until it is unrecognizable even to the Creator, but if we are unaffected wherein lies the meaning?”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
“If you hadn’t been in such a hurry to cremate me, I wouldn’t be in the jam I’m in now.”
—Seton I. Miller (1902–1974)
