Madison Lake

Famous quotes containing the words madison and/or lake:

    In republics, the great danger is, that the majority may not sufficiently respect the rights of the minority.
    —James Madison (1751–1836)

    A lake is the landscape’s most beautiful and expressive feature. It is earth’s eye; looking into which the beholder measures the depth of his own nature. The fluviatile trees next the shore are the slender eyelashes which fringe it, and the wooded hills and cliffs around are its overhanging brows.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
