Oxley Wild Rivers

Famous quotes containing the words wild and/or rivers:

    “What were our praise to them? They eat
    Quiet’s wild heart, like daily meat;
    Who when night thickens are afloat
    On dappled skins in a glass boat,
    Far out under a windless sky;
    While over them birds of Aengus fly....”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Thy summer voice, Musketaquit,
    Repeats the music of the rain;
    But sweeter rivers pulsing flit
    Through thee, as thou through Concord Plain.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
