Highest Mountain

Famous quotes containing the words highest and/or mountain:

“That is what the highest criticism really is, the record of one’s own soul. It is more fascinating than history, as it is concerned simply with oneself. It is more delightful than philosophy, as its subject is concrete and not abstract, real and not vague. It is the only civilised form of autobiography.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

“‘Tis distance lends enchantment to the view,
And robes the mountain in its azure hue.”
—Thomas Campbell (1777–1844)
