Famous quotes containing the words shallow and/or water:
“Eternal smiles his emptiness betray,
As shallow streams run dimpling all the way.”

“When peaceful clouds were reflected in the paddies
and the water buffalo stepped surely along terraces,
maybe fathers told their sons old tales.
When bombs smashed those mirrors
there was time only to scream.”
