Famous quotes containing the words river and/or falls:
“Is not disease the rule of existence? There is not a lily pad floating on the river but has been riddled by insects. Almost every shrub and tree has its gall, oftentimes esteemed its chief ornament and hardly to be distinguished from the fruit. If misery loves company, misery has company enough. Now, at midsummer, find me a perfect leaf or fruit.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“If that the earth could teem with woman’s tears,
Each drop she falls would prove a crocodile.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
