Famous quotes containing the words emerson, lake and/or palmer:

    We are a puny and fickle folk. Avarice, hesitation, and following are our diseases.
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Will lovely, lively, virginal today
    Shatter for us with a wing’s drunken blow
    This hard, forgotten lake haunted in snow
    By the sheer ice of flocks not flown away!
    Stéphane Mallarmé (1842–1898)

    The voice of America has no undertones or overtones in it. It repeats its optimistic catchwords in a tireless monologue that has the slightly metallic sound of a gramophone.
    —Vance Palmer (1885–1959)
