“Sometimes it takes a mountain---sometimes a troubled sea; sometimes it takes a desert--to get a hold of me. Your love is so much Stronger than whatever troubles me---Sometimes it takes a mountain to Trust You and Believe.”
― Mark Mathes, writer

“We were going home. The mountains might seem hostile to some people, but they were a shelter and a blessing for me. I lived in their shadows. As they have strength to my ancestors long ago, they gave strength to me now.”
― Florence Cope Bush, Dorie: Woman of the Mountains

“People are beginning to find out that going to the mountains is going home, that wilderness is a necessity.”
― John Muir

“- You made me confess the fears that I have. But I will tell you also what I do not fear. I do not fear to be alone or to be spurned for another or to leave whatever I have to leave. And I am not afraid to make a mistake, even a great mistake, a lifelong mistake, and perhaps as long as eternity too.”
― James Joyce, A Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce version illustrated by Brian Keogh
