Windy Mountain

Famous quotes containing the words windy and/or mountain:

    “Poetry is the supreme fiction, madame.
    Take the moral law and make a nave of it
    And from the nave build haunted heaven. Thus,
    The conscience is converted into palms,
    Like windy citherns hankering for hymns.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “I’ve been up the mountain and I had a choice. Should I come down? So I came down. God said, “Okay, you’ve been up on the mountain, now you go down. You’re on your own, free. Check in later, but now you’re on your own.””
    —Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)
