Famous quotes containing the words places and/or river:
“We said there warn’t no home like a raft, after all. Other places do seem so cramped up and smothery, but a raft don’t. You feel mighty free and easy and comfortable on a raft.”

“The river sweats
Oil and tar
The barges drift
With the turning tide”
