Famous quotes containing the words white and/or river:
“Stands the Spring! heralded by its bright-clothed
Trumpeters, of bough and bush and branch;
Pale Winter draws away his white hands, loathed,
And creeps, a leper, to the cave of time.”
—Philip Larkin (19221986)
“A river seems a magic thing. A magic, moving, living part of the very earth itselffor it is from the soil, both from its depth and from its surface, that a river has its beginning.”
—Laura Gilpin (18911979)
