Famous quotes containing the words alpine and/or world:

    “The shades of night were falling fast,
    As through an Alpine village passed
    A youth, who bore, ‘mid snow and ice,
    A banner with the strange device,
    Excelsior!”
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)

    No wider than the heart is wide;
    Above the world is stretched the sky,—
    No higher than the soul is high.”
