Distant Waters

Famous quotes containing the words distant and/or waters:

    As we looked up in silence to those distant lights, we were reminded that it was a rare imagination which first taught that the stars are worlds, and had conferred a great benefit on mankind.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    When in the sea-light every early game
    Was played with love and, if death’s waters came,
    You’d rescue me. How I would take you from,
    Now, if I could, its whirling vacuum.
    Howard Moss (b. 1922)
