Famous quotes containing the word rivers:

    “In the rivers north of the future.”
    —Paul Celan [Paul Antschel] (1920–1970)

    “Poor shad! where is thy redress? When Nature gave thee instinct, gave she thee the heart to bear thy fate? Still wandering the sea in thy scaly armor to inquire humbly at the mouths of rivers if man has perchance left them free for thee to enter.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Like an unseasonable stormy day,
    Which makes the silver rivers drown their shores,
    As if the world were all dissolved to tears,
    So high above his limits swells the rage
    Of Bolingbroke.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
