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)

But the valley sheep are fatter;
We therefore deemed it meeter
To carry off the latter.”

“But in the dome of mighty Mars the red,”
—Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)
