Famous quotes containing the words river and/or indian:
“the folk-lore
Of each of the senses; call it, again and again,
The river that flows nowhere, like a sea.”

“The Indian is one of Nature’s gentlemen—he never says or does a rude or vulgar thing. The vicious, uneducated barbarians, who form the surplus of overpopulous European countries, are far behind the wild man in delicacy of feeling or natural courtesy.”
—Susanna Moodie (1803–1885)
