“I have two hopes for the future. The first and lesser one is that game commissions will one day have sense enough to set limits that measurably reflect the sport safely available. The second and deeply urgent one is that we shall grow a race of sportsmen no one of whom will ever consider it a matter of pride to have killed a limit.” FirstsTwoMatterEnoughGamesGrowsSportsRaceSeaPrideOne DayLimitsRiversFishesAvailableBoatLakesFishingUrgentHope For The FutureSportsman Author:Roderick Haig-Brown
“If you keep at it long enough, one day you may witness some greater disturbance, some rushing breach of the water's surface so startling and violent and exhilarating that you too will suddenly, and always thereafter, believe in monsters.” IfsBelieveMayLongEnoughWaterGreaterSeaOne DayRiversFishesSurfaceMonstersViolentBoatWitnessLakesFishingRushingExhilaratingDisturbanceBreach Book:The Fishing Life: An Angler's Tales of Wild Rivers and Other Restless Metaphors Source: The Fishing Life: An Angler's Tales of Wild Rivers and Other Restless Metaphors
“One day, I was running to the river. Along the way there was the most exquisite butterfly, a tiny little thing, on the pavement. I kind of jumped over it. And then two days later I woke up in the middle of the night with a character running, jumping over butterflies on the streets of Nairobi. After that, I followed the story. The story wrote itself.” WayKindLittlesTwoCharacterStoriesRunningNightStreetsMiddleOne DayRiversTinyOver ItLittle ThingsButterflyJumpingExquisiteTwo DaysMiddle Of The NightPavementNairobi Author:Yvonne Adhiambo Owuor
“If every life is a river, then it's little wonder that we do not even notice the changes that occur until we are far out in the darkest sea. One day you look around and nothing is familiar, not even your own face. My name once meant daughter, grandaughter, friend, sister, beloved. Now those words mean only what their letters spell out; Star in the night sky. Truth in the darkness. I have crossed over to a place where I never thought I'd be. I am someone I would have never imagined. A secret. A dream. I am this, body and soul. Burn me. Drown me. Tell me lies. I will still be who I am.” IfsLooksMeanLittlesStillsSoulDreamBodyFacesLife IsLyingNightNamesStarsSecretWonderDarknessSeaSkyOne DayDaughterRiversLettersWho I AmFamiliarBelovedSpellsNight SkyStars In The Night Sky Author:Alice Hoffman
“Dear Bill (O'Reilly)...I am concerned that you have been losing touch with reality recently. Did you really say you are more powerful than any politician? That reminds me of the famous story about Squeaky the Chicago Mouse. It seems that Squeaky was floating on his back along the Chicago River one day. Approaching the Michigan Avenue lift bridge, he called out: Raise the bridge! I have an erection!” Has BeensStoriesRealitySeemsPoliticsPowerfulPoliticianOne DayLosingConcernedRiversRaisesBillsDearLiftsBridgesChicagoMiceFloatingAvenuesMichiganBill O Reilly Author:Roger Ebert
“Poor slob without a name. It's a little inconvenient, his not having a name. But I haven't the right to give him one: he'll have to wait until he belongs to somebody. We just sort of took up by the river one day, we don't belong to each other: he's an independent, and so am I. I don't want to own anything until I know I've found the place where me and things belong together.” KnowsWantGivingLittlesTogetherFoundNamesWaitingPoorHavensOne DayRiversIndependentInconvenient Author:Truman Capote
“Will you look at us by the river! The whole restless mob of us on spread blankets in the dreamy briny sunshine skylarking and chiacking about for one day, one clear, clean, sweet day in a good world in the midst of our living. Yachts run before an unfelt gust with bagnecked pelicans riding above them, the city their twitching backdrop, all blocks and points of mirror light down to the water's edge.” WorldLooksWholeLightRunningWaterCitiesClearSweetOne DayRiversMirrorsCleanEdgesSpreadBlockSunshineMidstRidingRestlessBlanketDreamyYachtBackdropTwitchingPelicans Book:Cloudstreet: Picador Classic Source: Cloudstreet: Picador Classic
“And I imagine... with great pleasure... all the horrible stirrings of the nonmanifested to bring forth the scream which creates the universe. Maybe one day I'll see you trembling, and you'll go into convulsion and grow larger and smaller until your mouth opens and the world will come from your mouth, escaping through the window like a river, and it will flood the city. And then we'll begin to live.” WorldUniverseGrowsPleasureCitiesImagineOne DayMouthsRiversWindowHorribleScreamFloodEscapingTremblingStirringMaybe One Day Author:Alejandro Jodorowsky
