Scenic River

Famous quotes containing the words scenic and/or river:

“Hence from scenic bacchanal,
Preshrunk and droll prodigal!
Smallness that you had to spend,
Spent. Wench, whiskey and tail-end
Of your overseas disease
Rot and rout you by degrees.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

“but we wish the river had another shore,
some further range of delectable mountains,”
—Robert Lowell (1917–1977)
