Famous quotes containing the word rivers:

    Like an unseasonable stormy day,
    Which makes the silver rivers drown their shores,
    As if the world were all dissolved to tears,
    So high above his limits swells the rage
    Of Bolingbroke.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    It is easier to move rivers and mountains than to change a person’s basic nature.
    Chinese proverb.
