Sheep River

Famous quotes containing the words sheep and/or river:

“I’m hurt, hurt and humiliated beyond endurance, seeing the wheat ripening, the fountains never ceasing to give water, the sheep bearing hundreds of lambs, the she-dogs, until it seems the whole country rises to show me its tender sleeping young while I feel two hammer-blows here instead of the mouth of my child.”
—Federico García Lorca (1898–1936)

“the folk-lore
Of each of the senses; call it, again and again,
The river that flows nowhere, like a sea.”
