Famous quotes containing the words tongue and/or river:

    “O my God, what must a soul be like when it is in this state! It longs to be all one tongue with which to praise the Lord. It utters a thousand pious follies, in a continuous endeavor to please Him who thus possesses it.”
    —Teresa Of Avila, Saint (1515–1582)

    “Hard by the lilied Nile I saw
    A duskish river dragon stretched along.
    The brown habergeon of his limbs enamelled
    With sanguine alamandines and rainy pearl:
    And on his back there lay a young one sleeping,
    No bigger than a mouse;”
    —Thomas Lovell Beddoes (1803–1849)
