Mountains Rise

Famous quotes containing the words mountains and/or rise:

    O God, that one might read the book of fate,
    And see the revolution of the times
    Make mountains level, and the continent,
    Weary of solid firmness, melt itself
    Into the sea.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    He is the old hunting dog of the sea
    who in the morning will rise from it
    and be undrowned
    and they will take his perfect green body
    and paint it red.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
