South Mount Juliet

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

“Whenever I’m asked why Southern writers particularly have a penchant for writing about freaks, I say it is because we are still able to recognize one. To be able to recognize a freak, you have to have some conception of the whole man, and in the South the general conception of man is still, in the main, theological.”
—Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)

“Nixon is the kind of politician who would cut down a redwood tree, then mount the stump for a speech on conservation.”
—Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)

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