"...the great Mississippi, the majestic, the magnificent, rolling its mile-wide tide along, shining in the sun: the dense forest away on the other side: the 'point' above the town, and the 'point' below, bounding the river-glimpse, and turning it into a sort of sea, and withal a very still and brilliant and lonely one." - Mark Twain
