River Dulnain from Sluggan Bridge
One of my favourite places – the sparkling River Dulnain just upstream from Sluggan Bridge, near Carrbridge, taken in the recent spell of sunshine.
“The river is constantly turning and bending and you never know where it’s going to go and where you’ll wind up. Following the bend in the river and staying on your own path means that you are on the right track. Don’t let anyone deter you from that.”
– Eartha Kitt
“You cannot find yourself by going into the past. You can find yourself by coming into the present.”
– Eckhart Tolle, ‘The Power of Now’
Mark Twain
For life and death are one, even as the river and the sea are one.
Khalil Gibran
You drown not by falling into a river, but by staying submerged in it.
Paulo Coelho
The logs of wood which move down the river together Are driven apart by every wave. Such inevitable parting Should not be the cause of misery.
Nagarjuna
No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it’s not the same river and he’s not the same man.
Heraclitus
Time is a sort of river of passing events, and strong is its current; no sooner is a thing brought to sight than it is swept by and another takes its place, and this too will be swept away.
Marcus Aurelius
Can anything be stupider than that a man has the right to kill me because he lives on the other side of a river and his ruler has a quarrel with mine, though I have not quarrelled with him?
Blaise Pascal

Haile Gebrselassie
If one morning I walked on top of the water across the Potomac River, the headline that afternoon would read: “President Can’t Swim.”
Lyndon B. Johnson
Time is the substance from which I am made. Time is a river which carries me along, but I am the river; it is a tiger that devours me, but I am the tiger; it is a fire that consumes me, but I am the fire.
Jorge Luis Borges
You cannot step into the same river twice.
Heraclitus
Fame is like a river, that beareth up things light and swollen, and drowns things weighty and solid.
Francis Bacon
I’ll love you, dear, I’ll love you till China and Africa meet and the river jumps over the mountain and the salmon sing in the street.
W. H. Auden
The activist is not the man who says the river is dirty. The activist is the man who cleans up the river.
Ross Perot
I like the evening in India, the one magic moment when the sun balances on the rim of the world, and the hush descends, and ten thousand civil servants drift homeward on a river of bicycles, brooding on the Lord Krishna and the cost of living.
James Cameron
While the river of life glides along smoothly, it remains the same river; only the landscape on either bank seems to change.
Max Muller
The river is constantly turning and bending and you never know where it’s going to go and where you’ll wind up. Following the bend in the river and staying on your own path means that you are on the right track. Don’t let anyone deter you from that.
