Famous quotes containing the words peak and/or climbs:
“In the mountains the shortest route is from peak to peak, but for that you must have long legs. Aphorisms should be peaks: and those to whom they are spoken should be big and tall of stature.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

climbs hesitates crawls back
climbs hesitates
O be swift
we have always known you wanted us.”
