Famous quotes containing the words mountain side, black, mountain and/or side:

    I thought of Chatterton, the marvellous boy,
    The sleepless soul that perished in his pride;
    Of him who walked in glory and in joy
    Following his plough, along the mountain side:
    By our own spirits are we deified:
    We poets in our youth begin in gladness;
    But thereof come in the end despondency and madness.
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    Quadroon mermaids, Afro angels, black saints
    balanced upon the switchblades of that air
    and sang.
    Robert Earl Hayden (1913–1980)

    And as it measured in her calipers,
    The mountain stood exalted in its place.
    So love will take between the hands a face. . . .
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Deliberation. The act of examining one’s bread to determine which side it is buttered on.
    Ambrose Bierce (1842–1914)
