Mount Remarkable

Famous quotes containing the words mount and/or remarkable:

“I mount the steps and ring the bell, turning
Wearily, as one would turn to nod good-bye to Rochefoucauld,
If the street were time and he at the end of the street,
And I say, “Cousin Harriet, here is the Boston Evening Transcript.””
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

“It is remarkable that among all the preachers there are so few moral teachers. The prophets are employed in excusing the ways of men.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
