Famous quotes containing the words river and/or paper:
“Nature seemed to have adorned herself for our departure with a profusion of fringes and curls, mingled with the bright tints of flowers, reflected in the water. But we missed the white water-lily, which is the queen of river flowers, its reign being over for this season.... Many of this species inhabit our Concord water.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Two heavy trestles, and a board
Where Satos gift, a changeless sword,
By pen and paper lies,
That it may moralise
My days out of their aimlessness.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
