Famous quotes containing the words river, city and/or star:

    “the folk-lore
    Of each of the senses; call it, again and again,
    The river that flows nowhere, like a sea.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “A city on whom plenty held full hand,
    For riches strewed herself even in her streets;
    Whose towers bore heads so high they kissed the clouds,
    And strangers ne’er beheld but wondered at.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “It is the star to every wand’ring bark,
    Whose worth’s unknown, although his height be taken.
    Love’s not Time’s fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
    Within his bending sickle’s compass come;
    Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
    But bears it out even to the edge of doom.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
