Sand Lake Village

Famous quotes containing the words sand, lake and/or village:

    “But the twelve lie in the sand by the dry rock
    Seeing nothing—the sand, the tree, rocks
    Without number—and turn away the face
    To the mind’s briefer and more desert place.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    “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)

    “This is the village where the funeral
    Stilted its dusty march over deep ruts
    Up the hillside covered with queen’s lace
    To the patch of weeds known finally to all.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)
