River Expedition

Famous quotes containing the words river and/or expedition:

    the folk-lore
    Of each of the senses; call it, again and again,
    The river that flows nowhere, like a sea.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    It is a sort of ranger service. Arnold’s expedition is a daily experience with these settlers. They can prove that they were out at almost any time; and I think that all the first generation of them deserve a pension more than any that went to the Mexican war.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
