Famous quotes containing the words eagle and/or lake:
“A lover’s eyes will gaze an eagle blind.
A lover’s ear will hear the lowest sound.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Such were the first rude beginnings of a town. They spoke of the practicability of a winter road to the Moosehead Carry, which would not cost much, and would connect them with steam and staging and all the busy world. I almost doubted if the lake would be there,—the self-same lake,—preserve its form and identity, when the shores should be cleared and settled; as if these lakes and streams which explorers report never awaited the advent of the citizen.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
