Path
Royce Brook does not have a definite starting point, as it consists of several bodies of water flowing into it within its 16-square-mile (41 km2) watershed. However, the website for the Royce Brook Watershed states that it starts at the edge of Sourland Mountain at 40°30′6″N 74°41′48″W / 40.50167°N 74.69667°W / 40.50167; -74.69667. It tends to run north-east and eventually empties into the Millstone River in Manville at 40°31′51″N 74°35′14″W / 40.53083°N 74.58722°W / 40.53083; -74.58722, which is subsequently deposited into the Raritan River.

Famous quotes containing the word path:
“The lesson which these observations convey is, be, and not seem. Let us acquiesce. Let us take our bloated nothingness out of the path of the divine circuits. Let us unlearn our wisdom of the world. Let us lie low in the lord’s power, and learn that truth alone makes rich and great.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Often on bare rocky carries the trail was so indistinct that I repeatedly lost it, but when I walked behind him I observed that he could keep it almost like a hound, and rarely hesitated, or, if he paused a moment on a bare rock, his eye immediately detected some sign which would have escaped me. Frequently we found no path at all at these places, and were to him unaccountably delayed. He would only say it was “ver strange.””
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The gray-eyed morn smiles on the frowning night,
Check’ring the eastern clouds with streaks of light,
And fleckled darkness like a drunkard reels
From forth day’s path and Titan’s fiery wheels.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
