Red Mountains

Famous quotes containing the words red and/or mountains:

“His breast was deep and white,
cold and caressable;
his eyes were red glass,
much to be desired.”

“We envy not the warmer clime, that lies
In ten degrees of more indulgent skies,
Nor at the coarseness of our heaven repine,
Though o’er our heads the frozen Pleiads shine:
‘Tis Liberty that crowns Britannia’s Isle,
And makes her barren rocks and her bleak mountains smile.”
—Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
