Fork Red River

Famous quotes containing the words fork, red and/or river:

    Wherever a man separates from the multitude, and goes his own way in this mood, there indeed is a fork in the road, though ordinary travelers may see only a gap in the paling. His solitary path across lots will turn out the higher way of the two.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Thou art not fair, for all thy red and white,
    For all those rosy ornaments in thee.
    Thou art not sweet, though made of mere delight
    Thomas Campion (1567–1620)

    Our trouble is that we drink too much tea. I see in this the slow revenge of the Orient, which has diverted the Yellow River down our throats.
    —J.B. (John Boynton)
