Famous quotes containing the words major and/or peaks:

    “As a novelist, I cannot occupy myself with “characters,” or at any rate central ones, who lack panache, in one or another sense, who would be incapable of a major action or a major passion, or who have not a touch of the ambiguity, the ultimate unaccountability, the enlarging mistiness of persons “in history.” History, as more austerely I now know it, is not romantic. But I am.”
    —Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)

    “On the secret map the assassins
    Cloistered, the Moon River was marked
    Near the eighteen peaks and the city
    Of humiliation and defeat ...”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)
