Famous quotes containing the words tongue and/or river:

    “I who have cursed
    The drunken officer of British rule, how choose
    Between this Africa and the English tongue I love?
    Betray them both, or give back what they give?
    How can I face such slaughter and be cool?
    How can I turn from Africa and live?”
    —Derek Walcott (b. 1930)

    “The river sweats
    Oil and tar
    The barges drift
    With the turning tide”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
