Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time. On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words, and some of the words are theirs. I am haunted by waters.Norman Maclean
About This Quote
The ideas of this poem are based on the idea of unity. The world is not divided into different parts, but the different parts of the world are all linked together. Each individual has his/her own unique personality and experiences, but eventually all of these experiences blend together to create one singular whole.
