Famous quotes containing the words trout and/or river:

    The heart beats thick,
    Big trout muscle out of the dead cold;
    Ted Hughes (b. 1930)

    There are knives that glitter like altars
    In a dark church
    Where they bring the cripple and the imbecile
    To be healed.

    There’s a woden block where bones are broken,
    Scraped clean—a river dried to its bed
    Charles Simic (b. 1938)
