South Branch River

Famous quotes containing the words south, branch and/or river:

    “Even when seen from near, the olive shows
    A hue of far away. Perhaps for this
    The dove brought olive back, a tree which grows
    Unearthly pale, which ever dims and dries,
    And whose great thirst, exceeding all excess,
    Teaches the South it is not paradise.”
    —Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)

    “That man’s the true Conservative
    Who lops the mouldered branch away.”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    “A reaction: a boat which is going against the current but which does not prevent the river from flowing on.”
    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
