Famous quotes containing the words bridges, river and/or thames:

    “And Reason kens he herits in
    A haunted house. Tenants unknown
    Assert their squalid lease of sin
    With earlier title than his own.”
    —Robert Bridges (1844–1930)

    “Our trouble is that we drink too much tea. I see in this the slow revenge of the Orient, which has diverted the Yellow River down our throats.”
    —J.B. (John Boynton)

    “I wander thro’ each charter’d street,
    Near where the charter’d Thames does flow,
    And mark in every face I meet
    Marks of weakness, marks of woe.”
    —William Blake (1757–1827)
