Famous quotes containing the words larry and/or rivers:
“That’s the nice thing about this job. You get to quote yourself shamelessly. If you don’t, Larry Speakes will.”
—Ronald Reagan (b. 1911)
“Melancholy is at the bottom of everything, just as at the end of all rivers is the sea. Can it be otherwise in a world where nothing lasts, where all that we have loved or shall love must die? Is death, then, the secret of life? The gloom of an eternal mourning enwraps, more or less closely, every serious and thoughtful soul, as night enwraps the universe.”
—Henri-Frédéric Amiel (1821–1881)
