Famous quotes containing the words original and/or highlands:
“Man, even man debased by the neocapitalism and pseudosocialism of our time, is a marvelous being because he sometimes speaks.

—Octavio Paz (b. 1914)
“My hearts in the Highlands, my heart is not here;
My hearts in the Highlands a-chasing the deer;
Chasing the wild deer, and following the roe:
My hearts in the Highlands, wherever I go.”
