Slide Mountain Ocean

Famous quotes containing the words slide, mountain and/or ocean:

    “We can slide it

    They call it easing the Spring.”
    —Henry Reed (1914–1986)

    “I never weary of great churches. It is my favourite kind of mountain scenery. Mankind was never so happily inspired as when it made a cathedral.”

    “On an old shore, the vulgar ocean rolls
    Noiselessly, noiselessly, resembling a thin bird,
    That thinks of settling, yet never settles, on a nest.”
