Famous quotes containing the words mile and/or river:

    There was a crooked man, and he went a crooked mile,
    He found a crooked sixpence against a crooked stile:
    He bought a crooked cat which caught a crooked mouse,
    And they all lived together in a little crooked house.
    Mother Goose (fl. 17th–18th century. There was a crooked man, and he went a crooked mile (l. 1–4)

    Nature seemed to have adorned herself for our departure with a profusion of fringes and curls, mingled with the bright tints of flowers, reflected in the water. But we missed the white water-lily, which is the queen of river flowers, its reign being over for this season.... Many of this species inhabit our Concord water.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
