South Mount Juliet

Famous quotes containing the words south, mount and/or juliet:

“Even when seen from near, the olive shows
A hue of far away. Perhaps for this
The dove brought olive back, a tree which grows
Unearthly pale, which ever dims and dries,
And whose great thirst, exceeding all excess,
Teaches the South it is not paradise.”
—Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)

“But mount to paradise
By the stairway of surprise.””
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“But soft, what light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
