Highest Mountain

Famous quotes containing the words highest and/or mountain:

“I do not believe in lawyers, in that mode of attacking or defending a man, because you descend to meet the judge on his own ground, and, in cases of the highest importance, it is of no consequence whether a man breaks a human law or not. Let lawyers decide trivial cases.”

“The ordinary man looking at a mountain is like an illiterate person confronted with a Greek manuscript.”
