Famous quotes containing the words agreement with, agreement, rocky and/or mountain:

—Donald Davidson (b. 1917)
“These poems, people,
lost ponies with
Dragging saddles—
and rocky sure-foot trails.”
—Gary Snyder (b. 1930)
“The most stupendous scenery ceases to be sublime when it becomes distinct, or in other words limited, and the imagination is no longer encouraged to exaggerate it. The actual height and breadth of a mountain or a waterfall are always ridiculously small; they are the imagined only that content us.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
