I gazed upon the glorious sky And the green mountains round, And thought that when I came to lie At rest within the ground, 'Twere pleasant, that in flowery June When brooks send up a cheerful tune, And groves a joyous sound, The sexton's hand, my grave to make, The rich, green mountain-turf should break.
William C. Bryant

The pure products of America go crazy--mountain folk from Kentucky or the ribbed north end of Jersey with its isolate lakes and valleys, its deaf-mutes, thieves.
William Carlos Williams

I don't play polo anymore because I am too old. But we still have a half a dozen horses - a couple of young horses we are teaching how to play polo and older horses that are real trustworthy when you get them up in the mountains.
William Devane

Journeying through secret doors, curving corridors, and connecting rooms into the mountain was like being digested by the different organs of a deity.

Share your presence with others, no boundaries, completely, openly, lovingly. Love is what makes us alive, that is why we feel so alive when we love. Service is being available to love. Life is the combustion of love. That we love ourselves here, that is the true magnificence in the mountains of being.

Together, joined in effort by the burden, they staggered up the last steep of the mountain. Together, they chanted One! Two! Three! and crashed the log on to the great pile. Then they stepped back, laughing with triumphant pleasure.
William Golding

My father considered a walk among the mountains as the equivalent of churchgoing.
Aldous Huxley

Only the mountain has lived long enough to listen objectively to the howl of the wolf.
Aldo Leopold
Image
Languages happily restrict the mind to what is of its own native growth and fitted for it, as rivers and mountains bond countries or the empire of learning, as well as states, would become unwieldy and overgrown.
William Hazlitt

The only very rugged part of the route is in crossing the Big Horn mountain, which is about 30 miles wide.
William Henry Ashley

I had the Big Horn river explored from Wind River mountain to my place of embarkation.

The spoken discourse may roll on strongly as the great tidal wave but, like the wave, it dies at last feebly on the sands. It is heard by few, remembered by still fewer, and fades away, like an echo in the mountains, leaving no token of power. It is the written human speech, that gave power and permanence to human thought.
Albert Pike
Image
It is difficult to find anything more healthy to drink than good cold water, such as flows down to us from springs and snows of our mountains. This is the beverage we should drink. It should be our drink at all times.
Brigham Young
Image
Does a firm persuasion that a thing is so, make it so? He replied, All poets believe it does. And in ages of imagination, this firm persuasion removes mountains but many are not capable of firm persuasion of anything.
William Blake
Image
Persistence is the most powerful force on earth, it can move mountains.
Albert Einstein

David Letterman

With my full philosophical rucksack I can only climb slowly up the mountain of mathematics.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
Image
New frameworks are like climbing a mountain - the larger view encompasses rather than rejects the more restricted view.
Albert Einstein
Image
Beauty is that little something that fills the whole world, and is contained neither in a single straight nose, a long eyelash, nor a blue mountain. Some see it in a leg of mutton, others in a compound fracture and to expect others to accept one's own definition of it is as absurd as to expect all humanity to use the same toilet-brush.
William Morris Hunt
Image
Patience and Diligence, like faith, remove mountains.
William Penn

Hiking. I don't like either the word or the thing. People ought to saunter in the mountains...the se mountains are our Holy Land, and we ought to saunter through them reverently, not 'hike' through them.
