West Saddle River

Famous quotes containing the words west, saddle and/or river:

    It is queer how it is always one’s virtues and not one’s vices that precipitate one into disaster.
    —Rebecca West (1892–1983)

    The dress makes the person; the saddle the horse.
    Chinese proverb.

    The river’s tent is broken; the last fingers of leaf
    Clutch and sink into the wet bank. The wind
    Crosses the brown land, unheard. The nymphs are departed.
    Sweet Thames, run softly, till I end my song.
    The river bears no empty bottles, sandwich papers,
    Silk handkerchiefs, cardboard boxes, cigarette ends
    Or other testimony of summer nights.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
