Treasure Mountain Dome

Famous quotes containing the words treasure, mountain and/or dome:

But being got it is a treasure sweet,
Which to defend is harder than to get:
And ought not be profaned on either part,
For though ‘tis got by chance,’tis kept by art.”
—John Donne (c. 1572–1631)

“One who only sits idle and eats can exhaust a mountain of wealth.”
