Famous quotes containing the words eagle and/or lake:

    “You will see Coleridge—he who sits obscure
    In the exceeding lustre and the pure
    Intense irradiation of a mind,
    Which, with its own internal lightning blind,
    Flags wearily through darkness and despair—
    A cloud-encircled meteor of the air,
    A hooded eagle among blinking owls.”
    —Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    “Turn back,
    back
    to the lake of Delos;
    lest all the song notes
    pause and break
    across a blood-stained throat....”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
