Famous quotes containing the words white and/or mountain:

    “Supererogatory divinations one is
    lured on by!
    The routine
    is decent. As if the white page
    were a clean tablecloth ...”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    “I thought of Chatterton, the marvellous boy,
    The sleepless soul that perished in his pride;
    Of him who walked in glory and in joy
    Following his plough, along the mountain side:
    By our own spirits are we deified:
    We poets in our youth begin in gladness;
    But thereof come in the end despondency and madness.”
    —William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
