Church Mountain, sometimes called Slievegad (Irish: Sliabh an Chodaigh, meaning "mountain of the covenant"), is the most westerly of the Wicklow Mountains in Ireland. At the summit are the remains of a large cairn and an old triangulation pillar. Just east of the N81 national route, it lies roughly halfway between Hollywood to the north and Donard to the south.
Famous quotes containing the words church and/or mountain:
“I do not believe in the creed professed by the Jewish Church, by the Roman Church, by the Greek Church, by the Turkish Church, by the Protestant Church, nor by any church that I know of. My own mind is my own church.”
—Thomas Paine (1737–1809)
“A few hours’ mountain climbing turns a rogue and a saint into two roughly equal creatures. Weariness is the shortest path to equality and fraternity—and liberty is finally added by sleep.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
