Famous quotes containing the word mountains:

    “It is the sorrow; shall it melt? Ah, water
    Would gush, flush, green these mountains and these valleys
    And we rebuild our cities, not dream of islands.”
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    “We envy not the warmer clime, that lies
    In ten degrees of more indulgent skies,
    Nor at the coarseness of our heaven repine,
    Though o’er our heads the frozen Pleiads shine:
    ‘Tis Liberty that crowns Britannia’s Isle,
    And makes her barren rocks and her bleak mountains smile.”
    —Joseph Addison (1672–1719)

    “Boomlay, boomlay, boomlay, Boom,”
    A roaring, epic, ragtime tune
    From the mouth of the Congo
    To the Mountains of the Moon.”
    —Vachel Lindsay (1879–1931)
