Famous quotes containing the words heart, river and/or bridge:
“Twelve o’clock! It is the natural centre, key-stone, and very heart of the day.

—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
““I’ll love you dear, I’ll love you
Till China and Africa meet,
And the river jumps over the mountain
And the salmon sing in the street.”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
“I see four nuns
who sit like a bridge club,
their faces poked out
from under their habits,”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
