    “I can’t do with mountains at close quarters—they are always in the way, and they are so stupid, never moving and never doing anything but obtrude themselves.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    From the mouth of the Congo
    To the Mountains of the Moon.”
    —Vachel Lindsay (1879–1931)

    Beside the crystal fountains.
    So come with me, we’ll go and see
    The Big Rock Candy Mountains.”
