Valley High

Famous quotes containing the words valley and/or high:

    “There is not in the wide world a valley so sweet
    As that vale in whose bosom the bright waters meet;”
    —Thomas Moore (1779–1852)

    “There is a sort of homely truth and naturalness in some books which is very rare to find, and yet looks cheap enough. There may be nothing lofty in the sentiment, or fine in the expression, but it is careless country talk. Homeliness is almost as great a merit in a book as in a house, if the reader would abide there. It is next to beauty, and a very high art. Some have this merit only.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
