Silver Star Mountain

Famous quotes containing the words silver, star and/or mountain:

“This royal throne of kings, this sceptred isle,
This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars,
This other Eden, demi-paradise,
This fortress built by nature for herself
Against infection and the hand of war,
This happy breed of men, this little world,
This precious stone set in the silver sea,
Which serves it in the office of a wall,
Or as a moat defensive to a house
Against the envy of less happier lands;
This blessèd plot, this earth, this realm, this England.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“It’s better to star in Oshkosh than to starve on Broadway.”
—James Gleason (1886–1959)

“‘Tis distance lends enchantment to the view,
And robes the mountain in its azure hue.”
—Thomas Campbell (1777–1844)
