Famous quotes containing the words alpine and/or world:

“Reason now gazes above the realm of the dark but warm feelings as the Alpine peaks do above the clouds. They behold the sun more clearly and distinctly, but they are cold and unfruitful.”

War was foundering of sublimities,
Extinction of each happy art and faith
By which the world had still kept head in air.”
