Famous quotes containing the words principal and/or mountains:
“The principal rule of art is to please and to move. All the other rules were created to achieve this first one.”
—Jean Racine (1639–1699)
“The mountains look on Marathon—
And Marathon looks on the sea;
And musing there an hour alone,
I dreamed that Greece might still be free;
For standing on the Persians’ grave,
I could not deem myself a slave.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
