Famous quotes containing the word banks:

    I live for those who love me,
    Whose hearts are kind and true;
    For the Heaven that smiles above me,
    And awaits my spirit too;
    For all human ties that bind me,
    For the task by God assigned me,
    For the bright hopes yet to find me,
    And the good that I can do.
    —George Linnaeus Banks (1821–1881)

    I am an intelligent river which has reflected successively all the banks before which it has flowed by meditating only on the images offered by those changing shores.
    Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

    For the wrong that needs resistance,
    For the future in the distance,
    And the good that I can do.
    —George Linnaeus Banks (1821–1881)
