Famous quotes containing the word mountains:

    “Wachusett hides its lingering voice
    Within its rocky heart,
    And Allegheny graves its tone
    Throughout his lofty chart.
    Monadnock, on his forehead hoar,
    Doth seal the sacred trust,
    Your mountains build their monument,
    Though ye destroy their dust.”
    —Lydia Huntley Sigourney (1791–1865)

    “He who lets the tiger go back to the mountains will surely suffer later on.”
    —Chinese proverb.

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