Famous quotes containing the words smoky, mountain and/or high:

    The mountain throws a shadow,
    Thin is the moon’s horn;
    What did we remember
    Under the ragged thorn?
    Dread has followed longing,
    And our hearts are torn.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Gifts of one loved me,—
    ‘T was high time they came;
    When he ceased to love me,
    Time they stopped for shame.
