Most of the luxuries and many of the so-called comforts of life, are not only not indispensable, but positive hindrances to the elevation of mankind
Henry David Thoreau
We have played here a lot in the past couple of years. It is much better than going off to a place like Denver where you have to deal with an unfamiliar gym plus the elevation.
Anthony Farina
There are two sorts of hypocrites: ones that are deceived with their outward morality and external religion; and the others are those that are deceived with false discoveries and elevation; which often cry down works, and men`s own righteousness, and.
Jonathan Edwards

Alton Swann
I am deeply interested in the progress and elevation of journalism, having spent my life in that profession, regarding it as a noble profession and one of unequaled importance for its influence upon the minds and morals of the people.
Allan Tupper
For asking questions about the height of the Himalayas, the height of Tibet, the height of the Andes, it`s terrific. But if you go to small mountain ranges or small elevation differences, you`re probably not going to be able to say much with confidence.
Anthony Saunders
As they come, we ask to see their number. Sometimes they have to dig down under several layers of clothing because the start is up in elevation. We get some funny looks. Who would get up at 4 a.m. in the morning if they weren`t going to run?
