Surface Waters

Famous quotes containing the words surface and/or waters:

    In the cold of Europe, under prudish northern fogs, except when slaughter is afoot, you only glimpse the crawling cruelty of your fellow men. But their rottenness rises to the surface as soon as they are tickled by the hideous fevers of the tropics.
    Louis-Ferdinand Céline (1894–1961)

    How doth the little crocodile
    Improve his shining tale,
    And pour the waters of the Nile
    On every golden scale!
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
