“Out of the hills of Habersham, Down the valleys of Hall, I hurry amain to reach the plain; Run the rapid and leap the fall, Split at the rock, and together again Accept my bed, or narrow or wide, And flee from folly on every side With a lover's pain to attain the plain, Far from the hills of Habersham, Far from the valleys of Hall.” RunningPainTogetherFallSidesAcceptingRocksLoversBedRiversWideHillsFollyHallsLeapValleysSplitsRapidsTogether Again Book:Poems of Sidney Lanier Source: Poems of Sidney Lanier
“Anglers have a way of romanticizing their battles with fish and of forgetting that the fish has a hook in his mouth, his gullet, or his belly and that his gameness is really an extreme of panic in which he runs, leaps, and pulls to get away until he dies. It would seem to be enough advantage to the angler that the fish has the hook in his mouth rather than the angler.” WayEnoughSeemsRunningDiesForgetBattleMouthsAdvantageFishesExtremesGet AwayLeapPanicHookBellyAnglers Author:Ernest Hemingway
