The Mount Lenox

Famous quotes containing the words mount and/or lenox:

    But mount to paradise
    By the stairway of surprise.”
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Droning a drowsy syncopated tune,
    Rocking back and forth to a mellow croon,
    I heard a Negro play.

    Down on Lenox Avenue the other night
    By the pale dull pallor of an old gas light
    Langston Hughes (1902–1967)
