Sacred Mountains

Famous quotes containing the words sacred and/or mountains:

    America is neither free nor brave, but a land of tight, iron- clanking little wills, everybody trying to put it over everybody else, and a land of men absolutely devoid of the real courage of trust, trust in life’s sacred spontaneity. They can’t trust life until they can control it.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Here among the mountains the pinions of thought should be strong, and one should see the errors of men from a calmer height of love and wisdom.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
