Famous quotes containing the words bear, lake and/or area:
“I hid my love when young till I
Couldnt bear the buzzing of a fly;
I hid my life to my despite
Till I could not bear to look at light:
I dare not gaze upon her face
But left her memory in each place;
Whereer I saw a wild flower lie
I kissed and bade my love good-bye.”
—John Clare (17931864)

—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Whether we regard the Womens Liberation movement as a serious threat, a passing convulsion, or a fashionable idiocy, it is a movement that mounts an attack on practically everything that women value today and introduces the language and sentiments of political confrontation into the area of personal relationships.”
—Arianna Stassinopoulos (b. 1950)
