Treasure Mountain Dome

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

    I have had no other treasure in this world than to see you once perfect and complete, as much in virtue, honesty and wisdom, as in all free and honest learning, and so leave you after my death like a mirror representing my person—your father—if not as excellent in fact as I would wish, certainly so in desire.
    François Rabelais (1494–1553)

    The mountain and the squirrel
    Had a quarrel,
    And the former called the latter “Little Prig”;
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    A starlit or a moonlit dome disdains
    All that man is,
    All mere complexities,
    The fury and the mire of human veins.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
