Famous quotes containing the words root and/or river:

    “Flower in the crannied wall,
    I pluck you out of the crannies,
    I hold you here, root and all, in my hand,
    Little flower—but if I could understand
    What you are, root and all, and all in all,
    I should know what God and man is.”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    “We are bare. We are stripped to the bone
    and we swim in tandem and go up and up
    the river, the identical river called Mine
    and we enter together. No one’s alone.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
