The Mountains

Famous quotes containing the word mountains:

    McLeod: Which one are you?
    Thornton: I’m Thornton.”
    —Leigh Brackett (1915–1978)

    “These have been wonderful years. How many happy, happy times we have traveled about together! Day and night, in stage coaches, on freight trains, over the mountains and across the prairies, hungry and tired, we have wandered. The work was sometimes hard and discouraging but those were happy and useful years.”
    —Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
