Medieval Mountain Fortifications

Famous quotes containing the words medieval and/or mountain:

“The medieval town, with frieze
Of boy scouts from Nagoya?”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

“I thought of Chatterton, the marvellous boy,
The sleepless soul that perished in his pride;
Of him who walked in glory and in joy
Following his plough, along the mountain side:
By our own spirits are we deified:
We poets in our youth begin in gladness;
But thereof come in the end despondency and madness.”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
