Timeless River

Famous quotes containing the words timeless and/or river:

Is not redeemed from time, for history is a pattern
Of timeless moments.”

In a dark church
Where they bring the cripple and the imbecile
To be healed.

There’s a woden block where bones are broken,
Scraped clean—a river dried to its bed”
