Famous quotes containing the words river and/or channel:
“There are knives that glitter like altars
In a dark church
Where they bring the cripple and the imbecile
To be healed.
There’s a woden block where bones are broken,
Scraped clean—a river dried to its bed”
—Charles Simic (b. 1938)
“Wherever there is a channel for water, there is a road for the canoe.”
