Famous quotes containing the words mountains, traverse and/or party:

    “The whole world is an omen and a sign. Why look so wistfully in a corner? Man is the Image of God. Why run after a ghost or a dream? The voice of divination resounds everywhere and runs to waste unheard, unregarded, as the mountains echo with the bleatings of cattle.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “The wind speeds her,
    Blowing upon her hands
    And watery back.
    She touches the clouds, where she goes
    In the circle of her traverse of the sea.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “Though the Jazz Age continued it became less and less an affair of youth. The sequel was like a children’s party taken over by the elders.”
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
