Famous quotes containing the words upper and/or west:
“Give me the islands of the upper air,
all mountains
and the towering mountain trees.”

For, rather than I’ll to the West return,
I’ll beg of thee first here to have mine urn.
Weak I am grown, and must in short time fall;
Give thou my sacred relics burial.”
—Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
