Famous quotes containing the words wind and/or river:

    “The wind is old and still at play
    While I must hurry upon my way,
    For I am running to Paradise;
    Yet never have I lit on a friend
    To take my fancy like the wind
    That nobody can buy or bind....”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “The murmurs of many a famous river on the other side of the globe reach even to us here, as to more distant dwellers on its banks; many a poet’s stream, floating the helms and shields of heroes on its bosom.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
