Thompson Rivers

Famous quotes containing the words thompson and/or rivers:

    I fled Him, down the nights and down the days;
    I fled Him, down the arches of the years;

    Of my own mind; and in the midst of tears
    I hid from Him, and under running laughter.
    —Francis Thompson (1859–1907)

    I would watch the funny people make love the way Maupassant said,
    my youth allowed me the opportunity to hear all those strange
    verbs conjugated in erotic affirmations.
