River Quotes

If we choose to walk into a forest where a tiger lives, we are taking a chance. If we swim in a river where crocodiles live, we are taking a chance. If we visit the desert or climb a mountain or enter a swamp where snakes have managed to survive, we are taking a chance Picture Quote #1

Those who are victorious plan effectively and change decisively. They are like a great river that maintains its course but adjusts its flow Picture Quote #1

Faith? Haven’t any. I’m not a nihilist or a relativist. I don’t believe in anything but change. I’m a Heraclitean - you can’t step in the same river twice Picture Quote #1

One of the central memories of my childhood is of hunting - not well; I am a terrible shot - quail and dove and grouse on a farm on the Tennessee River Picture Quote #1

I think the kind of landscape that you grew up in, it lives with you. I don’t think it’s true of people who’ve grown up in cities so much; you may love a building, but I don’t think that you can love it in the way that you love a tree or a river or the colour of the earth; it’s a different kind of love Picture Quote #1

The street is the river of life of the city, the place where we come together, the pathway to the center Picture Quote #1

There is a river whose streams make glad the city of Love. Along that river is the tree of heaven Picture Quote #1

Just as there’s garbage that pollutes the Potomac river, there is garbage polluting our culture. We need an Environmental Protection Agency to clean it up Picture Quote #1

So may heaven’s grace clear away the foam from the conscience, that the river of thy thoughts may roll limpid thenceforth Picture Quote #1

When I was a child and came with my elders to Galway for their salmon fishing in the river that rushes past the gaol, I used to look with awe at the window where men were hung, and the dark, closed gate Picture Quote #1

We are on the Colorado...that means something more to me than thoughts of electrical power or a harnessed river Picture Quote #1

I grew up in Oregon, where as a teenager I worked with my grandfather Axel on his I shing boat at the mouth of the Columbia River Picture Quote #1

Ships are obliged to take on harbor or river pilots - who provide specialized local navigation - when they approach a port, but in the canal, a Suez crew is also obligatory. The crew members are there in case the ship needs to be moored during the canal transit, but this rarely happens Picture Quote #1

In the rainy season, sometimes to get to the first lesson we had to run really quick, because we had to cross the river to school and we’d have to go up and down the bank to find a place to cross because there is no bridge Picture Quote #1

Avoid hating people because you might have destroyed the bridge you have just used to cross the river; you’ll need that bridge to cross again when returning! Picture Quote #1

A raft needed to cross the river is discarded when the other shore is reached, not carried about on one’s head Picture Quote #1

At the moment I’m so exhausted that I feel like cutting my throat, so the next news masy well be that I am across the river and under the trees: what is the meaning and purpose of life? Death Picture Quote #1

At least not until the Terror took hold of him. Not until he saw, night after night, a little boat being rowed across the river. Not until he saw it return at dawn. Not until he saw what his Untouchable son had touched. More than touched.Enter.Loved Picture Quote #1

If you want to be a yogi, you must be free, and place yourself in circumstances where you are alone and free from all anxiety. One who desires a comfortable and nice life and at the same time wants to realize the Self is like the fool who, wanting to cross the river, caught hold of a crocodile, mistaking it for a log of wood Picture Quote #1

After crossing the Smoky Hill River, I felt comparatively safe as this was the last stream I had to cross Picture Quote #1

Those who stand at the threshold of life always waiting for the right time to change are like the man who stands at the bank of a river waiting for the water to pass so he can cross on dry land Picture Quote #1

The course that I have uniformly pursued, ever since I became a missionary, has been rather peculiar. In order to become an acceptable and eloquent preacher in a foreign language, I deliberately abjured my own. When I crossed the river, I burnt my ships Picture Quote #1

There’s music along the river For Love wanders there,Pale flowers on his mantle, Dark leaves on his hair Picture Quote #1

These days grief seems like walking on a frozen river; most of the time he feels safe enough, but there is always that danger that he will plunge through Picture Quote #1

When you’re dead, they really fix you up. I hope to hell when I do die somebody has sense enough to just dump me in the river or something. Anything except sticking me in a goddam cemetery. People coming and putting a bunch of flowers on your stomach on Sunday, and all that crap. Who wants flowers when you’re dead? Nobody Picture Quote #1

I glimpsed the contour of a wide river, its surface glittering white. Dead trees haunted its edges, their limbs stretching skywards, as if begging for forgiveness Picture Quote #1

If you look at the river in that fashion you will be likely to bathe in it soon, cried Rozier. Some fire, my dear friend, some fire! Picture Quote #1

Life is a waste of woes, And Death a river deep, That ever onward flows, Troubled, yet asleep Picture Quote #1

A comma . . . catches the gentle drift of the mind in thought, turning in on itself and back on itself, reversing, redoubling, and returning along the course of its own sweet river music; while the semicolon brings clauses and thoughts together with all the silent discretion of a hostess arranging guests around her dinner table Picture Quote #1

I don’t know anything but writing practice, and so what I really do is direct that energy as if it were flowing down a river Picture Quote #1
