“All these buildings are like mountains I would like to climb, but I am forbidden.”
Alain Robert
“The experienced mountain climber is not intimidated by a mountain -- he is inspired by it. The persistent winner is not discouraged by a problem -- he is challenged by it. Mountains are created to be conquered; adversities are designed to be defeated; problems are sent to be solved. It is better to master one mountain than a thousand foothills.”
William Arthur Ward
“In the mountains, the shortest way is from peak to peak: but for that you must have long legs”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“There are many paths to the top of the mountain, but the view is always the same”
Chinese Proverbs
“If you wait for the perfect moment when all is safe and assured, it may never arrive. Mountains will not be climbed, races won, or lasting happiness achieved.”
Maurice Chevalier
“Faith, indeed, has up to the present not been able to move real mountains . . . But it can put mountains where there are none.”
“I'll love you, dear, I'll love you till China and Africa meet and the river jumps over the mountain and the salmon sing in the street.”
W. H. Auden
