Stuck River

Famous quotes containing the words stuck and/or river:

    will you come home today

    with tearful words stuck in her throat
    spoils the departure of her man

    that takes a hundred days
    to reach.

    There is a river in Macedon, and there is moreover a river in Monmouth. It is called Wye at Monmouth, but it is out of my prains what is the name of the other river; but ‘tis all one, ‘tis alike as my fingers is to my fingers, and there is salmons in both.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
