Treasure Mountain Dome

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

    “Love was as subtly catched, as a disease;
    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)

    “A few hours’ mountain climbing turns a rogue and a saint into two roughly equal creatures. Weariness is the shortest path to equality and fraternity—and liberty is finally added by sleep.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “Drab Habitation of Whom?
    Tabernacle or Tomb—
    Or Dome of Worm—
    Or Porch of Gnome—
    Or some Elf’s Catacomb?”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
