Hills Estates

Famous quotes containing the words hills and/or estates:

    O my soul’s joy,
    If after every tempest come such calms,
    May the winds blow till they have wakened death!
    And let the laboring bark climb hills of seas
    Olympus-high, and duck again as low
    As hell’s from heaven!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I hate the noise and hurry inseparable from great Estates and Titles, and look upon both as blessings that ought only to be given to fools, for ‘tis only to them that they are blessings.
    Mary Wortley, Lady Montagu (1689–1762)
