East Saddle River

Famous quotes containing the words east, saddle and/or river:

“A puff of wind, a puff faint and tepid and laden with strange odours of blossoms, of aromatic wood, comes out the still night—the first sigh of the East on my face. That I can never forget.

—Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)

“The dress makes the person; the saddle the horse.”
