Famous quotes containing the words wash and/or water:

    “Ye say they all have passed away,
    That noble race and brave;
    That their light canoes have vanished
    From off the crested wave;
    That, mid the forests where they roamed,
    There rings no hunters’ shout;
    But their name is on your waters,
    Ye may not wash it out.”
    —Lydia Huntley Sigourney (1791–1865)

    “But the beggar gazes on calamity
    And thereafter he belongs to it, to bread
    Hard found, and water tasting of misery.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
