Roof Height

Famous quotes containing the words roof and/or height:

“But whenever the roof came white
The head in the dark below
Was a shade less the color of night,
A shade more the color of snow.”

“The most stupendous scenery ceases to be sublime when it becomes distinct, or in other words limited, and the imagination is no longer encouraged to exaggerate it. The actual height and breadth of a mountain or a waterfall are always ridiculously small; they are the imagined only that content us.”
