Famous quotes containing the words valley and/or high:
“To be seventy years old is like climbing the Alps. You reach a snow-crowned summit, and see behind you the deep valley stretching miles and miles away, and before you other summits higher and whiter, which you may have strength to climb, or may not. Then you sit down and meditate and wonder which it will be.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (18071882)
“I know not how,
But I do find it cowardly and vile,
For fear of what might fall, so to prevent
The time of lifearming myself with patience
To stay the providence of some high powers
That govern us below.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
