“Mountains cannot be surmounted except by winding paths.”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“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
“Faith, indeed, has up to the present not been able to move real mountains . . . But it can put mountains where there are none.”

“He who climbs upon the highest mountains laughs at all tragedies, real or imaginary.”

“May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds.”
Edward Abbey
“The world is so empty if one thinks only of mountains, rivers and cities; but to know someone here and there who thinks and feels with us, and though distant, is close to us in spirit - this makes the earth for us an inhabited garden”
“Faith will move mountains”
Proverb
“The mountains are calling and I must go.”
