Grand Cape Mount

Famous quotes containing the words grand, cape and/or mount:

    The grand points in human nature are the same to-day they were a thousand years ago. The only variability in them is in expression, not in feature.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    Wishing to get a better view than I had yet had of the ocean, which, we are told, covers more than two thirds of the globe, but of which a man who lives a few miles inland may never see any trace, more than of another world, I made a visit to Cape Cod.... But having come so fresh to the sea, I have got but little salted.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    A land of meanness, sophistry and mist.
    Each breeze from foggy mount and marshy plain
    Dilutes with drivel every drizzly brain.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
