Famous quotes containing the words root and/or river:

    “The bud of the apple is desire, the down-falling gold,
    The catbird’s gobble in the morning half-awake
    These are real only if I make them so. Whistle
    For me, grow green for me and, as you whistle and grow green,
    Intangible arrows quiver and stick in the skin
    And I taste at the root of the tongue the unreal of what is real.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “A reaction: a boat which is going against the current but which does not prevent the river from flowing on.”
    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
