Famous quotes containing the words onion and/or river:

    “Three meals of thin gruel a day, with an onion twice a week, and half a roll on Saturdays.”
    —Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

    “Is not disease the rule of existence? There is not a lily pad floating on the river but has been riddled by insects. Almost every shrub and tree has its gall, oftentimes esteemed its chief ornament and hardly to be distinguished from the fruit. If misery loves company, misery has company enough. Now, at midsummer, find me a perfect leaf or fruit.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
