Famous quotes containing the words white and/or mountain:

    “Would you ascend to Heaven and bodiless dwell?
    Or take your bodies honorless to Hell?

    In Heaven you have heard no marriage is,
    No white flesh tinder to your lecheries,”
    —John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    “Is a park any better than a coal mine? What’s a mountain got that a slag pile hasn’t? What would you rather have in your garden—an almond tree or an oil well?”
    —Jean Giraudoux (1882–1944)
