River Passes

Famous quotes containing the words river and/or passes:

    Ask me no more: thy fate and mine are sealed;
    I strove against the stream and all in vain;
    Let the great river take me to the main.
    No more, dear love, for at a touch I yield;
    Ask me no more.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    Nature is a temple where living pillars
    Sometimes emit confused words;
    Man passes through forests of symbols
    Which observe him with familiar looks.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
