River Men Thematic

Famous quotes containing the words river and/or men:

    “The river knows the way to the sea;
    Without a pilot it runs and falls,
    Blessing all lands with its charity.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “He said “Next time can I bring my friend?”
    And I thought “Does he mean friend?”
    And I thought “Yes he does mean friend.”
    Which was quite bold in those days.
    It was the Dark Ages. Men and men.
    And they could still put you in prison for it.
    And did, dear.”
    —Alan Bennett (b. 1934)
