Famous quotes containing the words crater, lake and/or islands:

    “Give me a condor’s quill! Give me Vesuvius’ crater for an inkstand!”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “Such were the first rude beginnings of a town. They spoke of the practicability of a winter road to the Moosehead Carry, which would not cost much, and would connect them with steam and staging and all the busy world. I almost doubted if the lake would be there,—the self-same lake,—preserve its form and identity, when the shores should be cleared and settled; as if these lakes and streams which explorers report never awaited the advent of the citizen.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “we are so many
    and many within themselves
    travel to far islands but no one
    asks for their story....”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
