Famous quotes containing the words river and/or rats:
“Every incident connected with the breaking up of the rivers and ponds and the settling of the weather is particularly interesting to us who live in a climate of so great extremes. When the warmer days come, they who dwell near the river hear the ice crack at night with a startling whoop as loud as artillery, as if its icy fetters were rent from end to end, and within a few days see it rapidly going out. So the alligator comes out of the mud with quakings of the earth.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“God damn it, father-doctor.
I’m really thirty-six.
I see dead rats in the toilet.
I’m one of the lunatics.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
