I do not know much about gods; but I think that the river Is a strong brown god sullen, untamed and intractable, Patient to some degree, at first recognised as a frontier; Useful, untrustworthy, as a conveyor of commerce; Then only a problem confronting the builder of bridges.

T. S. Eliot

— Four Quartets, (1941)
