Famous quotes containing the words sheep and/or river:
“The mountain sheep are sweeter,
But the valley sheep are fatter;

To carry off the latter.”

“There are books so alive that you’re always afraid that while you weren’t reading, the book has gone and changed, has shifted like a river; while you went on living, it went on living too, and like a river moved on and moved away. No one has stepped twice into the same river. But did anyone ever step twice into the same book?”
—Marina Tsvetaeva (1892–1941)
