White River Badlands

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or river:

    The white stretch
    of its white beach,
    curved as the moon crescent
    or ivory when some fine hand
    chisels it.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    I cannot tell how many times we had to walk on account of falls or rapids. We were expecting all the while that the river would take a final leap and get to smooth water, but there was no improvement this forenoon.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
