River Assault Flotilla

Famous quotes containing the words river and/or assault:

    Ask me no more: thy fate and mine are sealed;
    I strove against the stream and all in vain;
    Let the great river take me to the main.
    No more, dear love, for at a touch I yield;
    Ask me no more.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    What Soft—Cherubic Creatures—
    These Gentlewomen are—
    One would as soon assault a Plush—
    Or violate a Star—
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
