Famous quotes containing the words ferry and/or lake:

    “John Brown and Giuseppe Garibaldi were contemporaries not solely in the matter of time; their endeavors as liberators link their names where other likeness is absent; and the peaks of their careers were reached almost simultaneously: the Harper’s Ferry Raid occurred in 1859, the raid on Sicily in the following year. Both events, however differing in character, were equally quixotic.”
    —John Cournos (1881–1956)

    “Lenin on a bench beside a lake disturbed
    The swans. He was not the man for swans.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
