Royce Brook - Path

Path

Royce Brook does not have a definite starting point, as it consists of several bodies of water flowing into it within its 16-square-mile (41 km2) watershed. However, the website for the Royce Brook Watershed states that it starts at the edge of Sourland Mountain at 40°30′6″N 74°41′48″W / 40.50167°N 74.69667°W / 40.50167; -74.69667. It tends to run north-east and eventually empties into the Millstone River in Manville at 40°31′51″N 74°35′14″W / 40.53083°N 74.58722°W / 40.53083; -74.58722, which is subsequently deposited into the Raritan River.

Famous quotes containing the word path:

    “The lesson which these observations convey is, be, and not seem. Let us acquiesce. Let us take our bloated nothingness out of the path of the divine circuits. Let us unlearn our wisdom of the world. Let us lie low in the lord’s power, and learn that truth alone makes rich and great.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Tired,
    she looked up the path
    her lover would take
    as far as her eyes could see.
    On the roads,
    traffic ceased
    at the end of day
    as night slid over the sky.
    The traveller’s pained wife
    took a single step towards home,
    said, “Could he not have come at this instant?”
    and quickly craning her neck around,
    looked up the path again.”
    —Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)

    “Not once or twice in our rough island-story
    The path of booty was the way to glory.”
    —Anonymous.
