Ski Palace Garden

Famous quotes containing the words ski, palace and/or garden:

    “The goal for all blind skiers is more freedom. You don’t have to see where you’re going, as long as you go. In skiing, you ski with your legs and not with your eyes. In life, you experience things with your mind and your body. And if you’re lacking one of the five senses, you adapt.”
    —Lorita Bertraun, Blind American skier. As quoted in WomenSports magazine, p. 29 (January 1976)

    “How the Chimney-sweepers cry
    Every blackning Church appalls,
    And the hapless Soldiers sigh
    Runs in blood down Palace walls”
    —William Blake (1757–1827)

    “Or of the garden where we first mislaid
    Simplicity of wish and will, forgetting
    Out of what cognate splendor all things came
    To take their scattering names;”
    —Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)
