Famous quotes containing the word river:

    “My favorite figure of the American author is that of a man who breeds a favorite dog, which he throws into the Mississippi River for the pleasure of making a splash. The river does not splash, but it drowns the dog.”
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
