Famous quotes containing the word mountains:

    “Ellie: A soul is a very expensive thing to keep: much more so than a motor car. Shotover: Is it? How much does your soul eat? Ellie: Oh, a lot. It eats music and pictures and books and mountains and lakes and beautiful things to wear and nice people to be with.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    “Fogs and clouds which conceal the overshadowing mountains lend the breadth of the plains to mountain vales. Even the small-featured country acquires some grandeur in stormy weather when clouds are seen drifting between the beholder and the neighboring hills.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “All I could see from where I stood
    Was three long mountains and a wood;”
    —Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)
