A river seems like a magic thing.
Magic, moving,
living part of the earth itself.
-Laura Gilpin
A river is water in its loveliest form; rivers have
life and sound and movement and infinity of variation;
rivers are veins of the earth through which the
lifeblood returns to the heart.
– Roderick Haig-Brown
No man ever steps in the same river twice,
for it’s not the same river,
and he’s not the same man.
-Heraclitus
The river has great wisdom and whispers its
secret to the hearts of men.
-Mark Twain
To put your hands in a river is to feel the chords that
bind the earth together.
– Barry Lopez
Learn from a river; obstacles may force it to
change its course,
but never its destination.
-Matshona Dihilwayo
I would love to live like a river flows, carried by
the surprise of its own unfolding.
-John O’Donohue
You can’t argue with a river – it is going to flow.
You can dam it up, put it to useful purposes,
you can deflect it, but you can’t argue with it.
-Dean Acheson
If the earth is a mother then the
rivers are her veins.
-Amit Kalantri
Don’t push the river. Just go with it.
-Alysia Reiner

A STATEMENT BY STEVE MCCURRY
“I can think of few more extraordinary humanitarian
organizations than the EMERGENCY
hospitals in Afghanistan which have
operated continuously throughout the
turbulence of the past few years.
When many fled the country, Emergency
doubled down on their commitment to care
for Afghans as they have since 1999.”
– Steve McCurry
Starting on August 15, we are teaming up with Ishkar to raise funds by selling the print below at a special, one-time price to show Afghanistan we have not forgotten.
More information coming soon at http://www.ishkar.com
All profits from the print sale will go to EMERGENCY’S
work in Afghanistan.
