Famous quotes containing the words salt and/or river:
“At sea a fellow comes out. Salt water is like wine, in that respect.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“The mountain may be approached more easily and directly on horseback and on foot from the northeast side, by the Aroostook road, and the Wassataquoik River; but in that case you see much less of the wilderness, none of the glorious river and lake scenery, and have no experience of the batteau and the boatman’s life.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
