River Valley Council

Famous quotes containing the words river, valley and/or council:

    The river knows the way to the sea;
    Without a pilot it runs and falls,
    Blessing all lands with its charity.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    All the Valley quivered one extended motion, wind
    undulating on mossy hills
    Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)

    Daughter to that good Earl, once President
    Of England’s Council and her Treasury,
    Who lived in both, unstain’d with gold or fee,
    And left them both, more in himself content.

    Till the sad breaking of that Parliament
    Broke him, as that dishonest victory
    At Chaeronea, fatal to liberty,
    Kill’d with report that old man eloquent;—
    John Milton (1608–1674)
