Mahomet made the people proverb

Mahomet made the people believe that he would call a hill to him, and from the top of it offer up his prayers for the observers of his law. The people assembled. Mahomet called the hill to come to him, again and again; and when the hill stood still he was never a whit abashed, but said, 'If the hill will not come to Mahomet, Mahomet will go to the hill'.

Francis Bacon, Sr. (1561-1626)

Mahomet made the people believe that he would call a hill to him . . . when the hill stood still, he was never a whit abashed, but said, 'If the hill will not come to Mahomet, Mahomet will go to the hill.'

Francis Bacon (1909-1992)

Mahomet made the people believe that he would call a hill to him ... when the hill stood still, he was never a wit abashed, but said, 'If the hill will not come to Mahomet, Mahomet will go to the hill.'

Francis Bacon, Sr. (1561-1626)

If the hill will not come to Mahomet, Mahomet will go to the hill.

Francis Bacon (1909-1992)

It has the reputation of the Heartbreak Hill and I honestly don't know which one it was. There was never one moment where you had a super steep hill or long hill, but the location of them in the race made it especially hard.

Kennen White

The north hill is devoted to Paul Klee the musician and teacher, the central hill to the painter and poet and the south hill to the researcher and mathematician.

Renzo Piano

Spring Hill Church near Hebron has a kick. St. Martin's Church in Worcester County has a kick and cove, as does All Hallows in Snow Hill. Pemberton Hall, an 18th century house not far from Green Hill, also has the two features. That got us thinking Green Hill may have had a kick and cove, too. We found evidence -- though very faint -- of a corner cove molding and it really rings true when it was put back -- it looks right. The evidence remains on the timbers from where the kick was removed.

Bill Wilson

No house should ever be on a hill or on anything. It should be of the hill. Belonging to it. Hill and house should live together each the happier for the other.

Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959)

It's a neater atmosphere because the ground slopes back there. People can sit up on the hill and look down on the musicians. People can spread out on the little hill of The Glen.

Joan McBride

They were tough conditions up there. It was pretty bouncy, the snow was aggressive and the flat light made it tricky. It was a day when experience helps. ... This hill's not as challenging as a World Cup hill, but they could set it really difficult. The only thing that's lacking is the air (jumps).

Bode Miller

It's a strange thing for Bush to have slipped into, given the savvy you expected from this administration, with a vice president who spent over a decade on Capitol Hill. It seems as if his people would have seen that there was potential for trouble, and at least done their homework on the Hill.

Fred Greenstein

And he bought the hill Samaria of Shemer for two talents of silver, and built on the hill, and called the name of the city which he built, after the name of Shemer, owner of the hill, Samaria.

Bible

There's a big hill a quarter-mile from the finish that really gets kids. It really kind of separates the men from the boys on the hill there.

Phil Williams

I like this hill. This is a very special hill for me. Every part, I had good times and the turn in the end is much like a downhill. I think I reached 80 mph.

Hermann Maier

It appeared that Comer had been climbing a hill and at some point lost control and rolled down the hill, with the snowmobile landing on top of him.
