Soul Summit Vol

Famous quotes containing the words soul and/or summit:

“The soul is not a soul,
Has no secret, is small, and it fits
Its hollow perfectly: its room, our moment of attention.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

“The tops of mountains are among the unfinished parts of the globe, whither it is a slight insult to the gods to climb and pry into their secrets, and try their effect on our humanity. Only daring and insolent men, perchance, go there. Simple races, as savages, do not climb mountains,—their tops are sacred and mysterious tracts never visited by them. Pomola is always angry with those who climb the summit of Ktaadn.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
