    Like the water, the Walden ice, seen near at hand, has a green tint, but at a distance is beautifully blue, and you can easily tell it from the white ice of the river, or the merely greenish ice of some ponds, a quarter of a mile off.

    The murmurs of many a famous river on the other side of the globe reach even to us here, as to more distant dwellers on its banks; many a poet’s stream, floating the helms and shields of heroes on its bosom.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The truth is the river flows into the canyon
    Of Ceasing-to-Question-What-Doesn’t-Concern-Us,
    As sooner or later we have to cease somewhere.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
