River Edge

Famous quotes containing the words river and/or edge:

    We are bare. We are stripped to the bone
    and we swim in tandem and go up and up
    the river, the identical river called Mine
    and we enter together. No one’s alone.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    So God stepped over to the edge of the world
    And He spat out the seven seas;
    He batted His eyes, and the lightnings flashed;
    He clapped His hands, and the thunders rolled;
    And the waters above the earth came down,
    The cooling waters came down.
    James Weldon Johnson (1871–1938)
