RE: [VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Charlie Bonner]

The River was cut by the worlds great flood and runs over the rocks from the 
basement of time, under the rocks are the words and the words are theirs. I 
am haunted by waters.

"Of course, now I am too old to be much of a fisherman, and now of course I 
usually fish the big waters alone, although some friends think I shouldn't. 
Like many fly fishermen in western Montana where the summer days are almost 
Arctic in length, I often do not start fishing until the cool of the 
evening. Then in the Arctic half-light of the canyon, all existence fades 
to a being with my soul and memories and the sounds of the Big Blackfoot 
River and a four-count rhythm and the hope that a fish will rise."
