Fall River Valley

Famous quotes containing the words fall, river and/or valley:

    I’ve always wondered why European politicians as a group seemed brighter than American politicians as a group. Maybe it’s because many American politicians have the race issue to fall back on. They become lazy, suspicious of innovative ideas, and as a result American institutions atrophy.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)

    but we wish the river had another shore,
    some further range of delectable mountains,
    Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

    “Over the mountains
    Of the moon,
    Down the valley of the shadow,
    Ride, boldly ride,”
    The shade replied,—
    “If you seek for Eldorado!”
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
