Famous quotes containing the words providence and/or mountains:
“What is Providence for you may be Nemesis for me.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“Wachusett hides its lingering voice
Within its rocky heart,
And Allegheny graves its tone
Throughout his lofty chart.
Monadnock, on his forehead hoar,
Doth seal the sacred trust,
Your mountains build their monument,
Though ye destroy their dust.”
—Lydia Huntley Sigourney (1791–1865)
