Famous quotes containing the word mountains:

    “If I must choose which I would elevate
    The people or the already lofty mountains,
    I’d elevate the already lofty mountains.
    The only fault I find with old New Hampshire
    Is that her mountains aren’t quite high enough.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
